In honor of Blazing Saddles’ 50th anniversary, North by Northwest’s 65th anniversary, and The Terminator’s 40th anniversary, Warner Bros. Home Discovery has announced 4K Ultra HD and Digital release dates for all three movies.
What are the 4k Ultra HD release dates for Blazing Saddles, The Terminator, and North by Northwest?
All three movies will be released for the first time on 4K Ultra HD and Digital on November 19, 2024.
Directed by Mel Brooks, Blazing Saddles was released in 1974. The Western spoof comedy stars Cleavon Little, Gene Wilder, Slim Pickens, Harvey Korman, Madeline Kahn, and more.
“Ribald, tasteless and hilarious … this classic spoof of the Western genre by director Mel Brooks pokes fun at everyone and everything,” the film’s description reads. “A corrupt governor grants a reprieve to an African American convict if the condemned man agrees to serve as sheriff of a small Western town, believing that new sheriff will only live long enough to serve the needs of the governor and his nefarious railroad-baron backer.”
North by Northwest is a classic Alfred Hitchcock thriller movie originally released in 1959. It stars Cary Grant, Eva Marie Saint, James Mason, and Jessie Royce Landis.
“Cary Grant stars as an innocent man mistaken for a spy in one of director Alfred Hitchcock’s greatest thrillers,” North by Northwest’s synopsis reads. “While leaving New York’s Plaza Hotel, advertising executive Roger Thornhill (Grant) has the misfortune of raising his hand just as the name “George Kaplan” is paged–starting a lethal case of mistaken identity and a nonstop game of cat and mouse as he is pursued across North America by espionage agents trying to kill him–and by police who suspect him of murder.”
Lastly, The Terminator, which kickstarted a franchise, was directed by James Cameron and stars Arnold Schwarzenegger, Linda Hamilton, Michael Biehn, and Paul Winfield.
“Disguised as a human, a cyborg assassin known as a Terminator (Arnold Schwarzenegger) travels from 2029 to 1984 to kill Sarah Connor (Linda Hamilton). Sent to protect Sarah is Kyle Reese (Michael Biehn), who divulges the coming of Skynet, an artificial intelligence system that will spark a nuclear holocaust,” the description reads. “Sarah is targeted because Skynet knows that her unborn son will lead the fight against them. With the virtually unstoppable Terminator in hot pursuit, she and Kyle attempt to escape.”
