E.T. Remastered for 30th Anniversary
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Universal, Classics, Family, Science Fiction, Home Entertainment
E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial will be released in a digitally remastered edition to celebrate its 30th anniversary.
The Blu-ray of the Oscar winning movie - directed by Steven Spielberg and starring Drew Barrymore - will feature never before seen footage from the set of the movie along with an all-new interview with Spielberg. Other highlights will include two deleted scenes, a reunion with the cast and filmmaker, a featurette on the evolution and creation of the movie and a discussion with composer John Williams on the music of E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial.
"When E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial premiered in 1982, it captured the imaginations of people young, old and everyone in between in a way that was unparalleled in modern movie history. A global cultural phenomenon-and the biggest box-office blockbuster of its day-E.T. brought out the child in all of us. We are thrilled audiences will now be able to experience the film in the astounding quality of Blu-ray," said Craigh Kornblau, President of Universal Studios Home Entertainment.
Universal have confirmed the 1982 original rather than the 2002 update - which featured a number of controversial changes - will be remastered for the 30th anniversary. The Blu-ray release date is set for October.
