Very good! :) A few suggestions:

For the back, I think you should keep the top specs box in place of the Warner banner and the quote. I think it's a lot stronger. To save space for the special features, try combining features on the same text line instead of having their own line. :)

For the front, I recommend coloring the skin with a single skin tone with the blending mode "color" so it's not a mixture of purple of yellow. I also suggest lessening the contrast the keep the skin tones under control. :)

I agree, they looked particularly great in that setup.

For the technical specs, maybe you could use Warner's most recent practice of just the two lines at the bottom for "Main Feature" and "Special Features?" Then, you can increase the vertical line spacing a little on the synopsis and special features, and maybe decrease the height of your stills a tiny bit if you need to. This should give you a pretty versatile amount of space for future covers in the series.

In this setup, a shorter quote in a larger font size would probably look even better.

Also, unrelated, maybe you could move Emma Watson's name up to the first line of credits or remove the "Starring" between her name and Helena Bonham-Carter?

(Pardon the messy mockup :) )

I agree with Bunny. The lower specs option does allow a better fitting layout for future covers
