Two war movie favorites will be getting the 4K treatment in May.
Sony is set to release 'Fury' and 'The Patriot' on 4K UHD on May 22. Both films are presented on 4K Ultra HD with High Dynamic Range (HDR10) and exclusive Dolby Atmos audio.
Fury - April, 1945. As the Allies make their final push in the European Theatre, a battle-hardened army sergeant named Wardaddy (Brad Pitt) commands a Sherman tank and her five-man crew on a deadly mission behind enemy lines. Outnumbered and outgunned, and with a rookie soldier thrust into their platoon, Wardaddy and his men face overwhelming odds in their heroic attempts to strike at the heart of Nazi Germany.
The 4K Ultra HD release of Fury is scanned from its theatrical 4K Digital Intermediate and includes more than 30 minutes of rare featurettes, in addition to the hours of content on the included Blu-ray™ within the set.
