Our friends at Lionsgate Limited have set Wes Craven’s Scream 4 (2011) for 4K Steelbook release on 6/9! The disc will include Dolby Vision HDR and Dolby Atmos audio. Exclusive new extras include The Meta of Scream, Rebooting the Franchise: Scream 4 Revisited, Ghostface Revealed! and Wes Craven: The Maestro of Scream. Legacy extras will carry over too, including the commentary with Craven, Emma Roberts, Hayden Panettiere, and Neve Campbell, deleted and extended scenes, the alternate opening and extended ending, a gag reel, B-roll clips, press junket interviews, and trailers and TV spots. You can pre-order the title here and you can see the cover artwork at left.
