Overview
- Warner Bros. Discovery Home Entertainment announced a newly remastered 4K Ultra HD/4K UHD Blu-ray edition of Gone With the Wind that is slated for release in November and will include standard and SteelBook discs plus a Walmart-exclusive collector’s edition.
- The package adds three new documentary-style special features titled to address the film’s influence, the technical restoration process, and a retrospective on Vivien Leigh’s Scarlett O’Hara performance.
- Digital purchases will be offered through major retailers including Amazon Prime Video and Apple TV while Walmart is handling the exclusive physical collector edition and opened preorders for that retail edition.
- WaterTower Music confirmed a new vinyl reissue of Max Steiner’s original score this fall, the first new pressing of the soundtrack in more than 40 years.
- The release frames the technical upgrade within the film’s long-standing place in American cinema, recalling its 10 Academy Awards, Hattie McDaniel’s historic Oscar win, and its selection for the Library of Congress National Film Registry.
