SHERLOCK HOLMES: A GAME OF SHADOWS Coming To Blu-Ray & DVD On June 12th
Warner Bros. has announced that the Guy Ritchie-directed sequel starring Robert Downey, Jr. and Jude Law will be released on Blu-Ray and DVD on June 12th, plus hit the jump to check out the covers...
Sherlock Holmes has always been the smartest man in the room…until now. There is a new criminal mastermind at large—Professor James Moriarty (Jared Harris)—and not only is he Holmes' intellectual equal, but his capacity for evil, coupled with a complete lack of conscience, may give him an advantage over the renowned detective.
Around the globe, headlines break the news: a scandal takes down an Indian cotton tycoon; a Chinese opium trader dies of an apparent overdose; bombings in Strasbourg and Vienna; the death of an American steel magnate… No one sees the connective thread between these seemingly random events—no one, that is, except the great Sherlock Holmes, who has discerned a deliberate web of death and destruction. At its center sits a singularly sinister spider: Moriarty.
Holmes' investigation into Moriarty's plot becomes more dangerous as it leads him and Watson out of London to France, Germany and finally Switzerland. But the cunning Moriarty is always one step ahead, and moving perilously close to completing his ominous plan. If he succeeds, it will not only bring him immense wealth and power but alter the course of history.
The Blu-ray release will be presented in its intended 2.35:1 aspect ratio, presumably in 1080p/AVC. The film will be mixed in 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio, along with Spanish, French and Thai 5.1 Dolby Digital audio. The film will include Cantonese, Spanish, French, Korean, Indonesian, English SDH subtitles.
The DVD will include English, Spanish and French 5.1 Dolby Digital audio, an anamorphic widescreen transfer, and Spanish, French, English SDH subtitles.
