Nick Park's latest stop-motion animated comedy rolls onto Digital this Tuesday, May 15, and then on Blu-ray and DVD May 22. Set at the dawn of time, when prehistoric creatures roamed the Earth, "Early Man" tells the story of courageous caveman hero Dug (Eddie Redmayne) who tries to unite his tribe against a mighty enemy, Lord Nooth (Tom Hiddleston) and his Bronze Age City. Maisie Williams, Miriam Margolyes, and Timothy Spall costar.

This documentary about the Aerosmith icon will be available on VOD and Digital HD May 15. Here's the trailer. And here's more about it:

"An intimate portrait of rock icon Steven Tyler as he embraces the challenges of shifting gears, both as a solo performer and in a new genre of music. Uncovering a side of Tyler many fans have never seen before, this inspiring story looks at the passion, drive and search for creative fulfillment that keeps artists pushing boundaries throughout their careers."

• "Coming to My Senses"
Here's another documentary, which won the Audience Award at the Austin Film Festival and Best Documentary at Red Rock. It's available on EST platforms May 15, and VOD May 22.

"In 1999 Aaron Baker broke his neck in a motocross accident, leaving him completely paralyzed from the neck down. Despite doctor's grim prognosis, over the next 16 years Aaron decided not to listen to those who said 'he had a million-to-one odds of ever feeding himself again' and instead, through painstaking effort, endeavored to regain as much mobility as possible. This journey through the unknown took him from the depths of depression to the joys of cross country road tripping via tandem bicycle with his mother and friends, and finally, culminating in his opening a socially conscious low-cost gym focused on increasing mobility for the disabled.

Now, in 'Coming to My Senses,' we watch as Aaron takes one final journey which symbolizes his recovery: crossing a 20-mile tract of Death Valley unsupported on foot. But will he make it?"

• "1987: When the Day Comes"
This award-winning political thriller, looking back at a pivotal moment in South Korean history, is releasing on Amazon, Google Play, and iTunes on May 15.

"In 1987, as South Koreans live under an oppressive military regime, a college student is killed during a police interrogation. Government officials quickly jump to cover up the death and order the body cremated, but the prosecutor who needs to sign off raises questions on the cause of death – a heart attack – and begins to dig for the truth. Despite a systematic attempt to silence everyone involved in the case, the truth gets out, sending a government fighting to keep power into political turmoil."
