SPIDER-MAN Limited Edition 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray Collection Officially Announced
After the cover art surfaced last week, Sony Pictures has announced the upcoming 4K Ultra HD release of the Spider-Man: Legacy Collection, which will feature the first 4K copies of the original trilogy!
Ahead of Spider-Man: Homecoming's release in July, Sony Pictures Home Entertainment re-released the first five Spider-Man films on Blu-ray in an awesome Legacy Collection that featured all-new artwork along with a stunning new steelbook. The new collection also saw the debut of the Spider-Man 3: Editor's Cut, which is a brand new version of the blockbuster film recut by Academy Award-winning editor Bob Murawski.
At the time of release, there were also rumblings that Sony was planning on releasing 4K Ultra HD Legacy Collections simultaneously, but for whatever reason, those releases were delayed and after an extended wait, the studio has finally announced when fans can see those eagerly awaited editions - which will be the first time Raimi's beloved trilogy has ever been released on the premium format - on shelves.
The Original Spider-Man Limited Edition Collection and Amazing Spider-Man Limited Edition Collection will both go on sale on October 17 - the same day as the Spider-Man: Homecoming Blu-ray. All five theatrical versions of the films will be presented in full 4K resolution and will be presented with Dolby Atmos audio. Additionally, the Original trilogy collection will also include Spider-Man 2.1 and the aforementioned Spider-Man 3: Editor's Cut, so you're getting five cuts for the price of three.
All five films (seven including alternate cuts) will also be made available in a 12-disc Best Buy Exclusive Steelbook, the artwork of which you can view at the bottom of the page.
