Jean-Claude Van Damme in 4K? Mark June in the calendar, as John Woo’s Hard Target gets a 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray release in the UK.
Here’s a nice, surprise piece of news. One of Jean-Claude Van Damme’s most successful movies – in box office terms certainly – is the mightily good fun Hard Target. It’s a film that’s enjoyed a good catalogue release in the US already, but now we get the news that it’s set to arrive on 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray in the UK as well.
The movie, directed by the mighty John Woo, also stars Lance Henriksen, Chuck Pfarrer and Arnold Vosloo, and the 4K disc of it lands in UK stores on June 26th 2023.
Doesn’t look like there’s anything in the way of extra features included, and the package is a 4K disc only. But you do get to see JCVD kick ass in ultra HD.
More information on the release here, where you can also preorder a copy.
