The Matrix will feature a newly remastered version for Ultra HD Blu-ray supervised by director of Photography Bill Pope, with HDR via Dolby Vision and a new soundtrack mastered to Dolby Atmos. We also got word the upcoming combo from Warner Bros. will include a new print from the remastered version on Blu-ray. So, whether or not you’ve got a 4k TV you’ll still be able to enjoy an improved 1080p presentation.
The Ultra HD Blu-ray edition will also include bonus material such as a written introduction by the Wachowskis, and commentary from critics, cast, crew, and composer Don Davis. On Blu-ray, several previously-released extras include The Matrix Revisited, Follow the White Rabbit, Take the Red Pill and more.
Warner will likely release all three Matrix trilogy films, and perhaps a 3-movie collection afterwards. But for now, whether or not you’re a fan of the sequels The Matrix (1999) in 4k will hit stores on May 22, 2018. Buy on Amazon
