The critically-acclaimed film starring Gary Oldman is getting a 4K release this June.
In an early announcement to retailers, Universal Studios is set to release 'Darkest Hour' on 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray on June 12.
Academy Award winner Gary Oldman gives a "towering performance" (Richard Lawson, Vanity Fair) in acclaimed director Joe Wright's soaring drama Darkest Hour. As Hitler's forces storm across the European landscape and close in on the United Kingdom, Winston Churchill (Oldman) is elected the new Prime Minister. With his party questioning his every move, and King George VI (Ben Mendelsohn) skeptical of his new political leader, it is up to Churchill to lead his nation and protect them from the most dangerous threat ever seen. Also starring Academy Award nominee Kristin Scott Thomas and Lily James, Darkest Hour is a powerful, inspirational drama.
The 4K release will feature 2160p video in HDR with Dolby Atmos audio and supplements include: Into Darkest Hour, Gary Oldman: Becoming Churchill, and Feature Commentary with Director Joe Wright.
