James Gunn`s new Superman movie has just begun its theatrical run this week, and preorders are now open for the upcoming Blu-ray release. This includes a 4K Steelbook Edition priced at $38. Standard 4K and regular Blu-ray versions are also available for preorder.
Although a specific release date hasn`t been announced, Blu-ray releases typically occur around three months after a film debuts in theaters. Therefore, these are anticipated to arrive in the Fall. Preordering the Superman 4K Steelbook or standard editions now ensures you won`t be charged until the items ship. Additionally, if the price decreases before the release, you will automatically receive the lowest price.
Superman Limited Edition Steelbook (4K Blu-ray)
While a definitive release date is still pending, the Blu-ray is expected approximately three months post-theatrical debut, potentially in October. The Steelbook boasts a striking cover featuring the entrance to Superman`s Fortress of Solitude, with the interior art depicting the Man of Steel within the crystalline structure, a tribute to his lost home world.
Details on bonus features are not yet available. However, DC Comics film releases typically include substantial behind-the-scenes content, such as the extensive features found in the 2022 release of The Batman, covering aspects like character development and prop creation.
Superman Standard Editions
Beyond the prominent 4K Steelbook, standard editions are also available for preorder in 4K UHD, Blu-ray, and DVD formats. The final cover art for these standard versions has not been released, and similar to the Steelbook, the bonus features remain unannounced.
Superman: The Art and Making of the Film
In addition to the Blu-ray, fans can look forward to “Superman: The Art and Making of the Film”, an art book set to release on November 18th. This 176-page hardcover book contains concept art, designs for costumes and characters, illustrations of the film`s various locations, and interviews with director James Gunn and other creative team members. It also includes a foreword by Superman actor David Corenswet. The book is currently available for preorder priced at $50.
