2000’s U-571 is coming to 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray in the UK this September, with extra features too: more details here.
A film that attracted no shortage of controversy in the UK on its original release, submarine thriller U-571 earned ire for its rewriting of World War II history. Starring Matthew McConaughey and the late Bill Paxton, and directed by Jonathan Mostow, the thing is that the film itself was always a strong one.
It’s also a solid home entertainment workout too, and the film has been selected for a 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray release. It’s from the folks at Studiocanal, and the disc has been earmarked for release on September 25th 2023.
Extras-wise, there are features listed, although it doesn’t look like these are new supplements. However, it’s good to have them on the disc. Thus, you’re getting…
- Behind the Scenes
- Featurette: Construction of U-571
- Featurette: Capture of U-110
- Interview with Jonathan Mostow
- Interview with Matthew McConaughey
- Interview with Jon Bon Jovi
- Interview with Bill Paxton
- Audio Commentary with Director Jonathan Mostow
The disc is available to order now: you can find more information on it, and order a copy, here.
