Director Edward Zwick’s Civil War epic Glory is making its 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray debut on July 30th courtesy of Sony Pictures Home Entertainment.
Glory stars Matthew Broderick, Denzel Washington, Cary Elwes and Morgan Freeman in the story of the U.S. Civil War’s first all-black volunteer company — known as the 54th Massachusetts Regiment. The film was nominated for five Academy Awards and helped Denzel Washington score his first win for Best Actor.
Glory also won a Best Cinematography Oscar, so what better way to celebrate the film’s 30th anniversary this year with a new 4K resolution scan with HDR from the original camera negative. Sony has also mixed a new Dolby Atmos audio track for Glory’s 4K UHD debut.
Here’s a breakdown of all the bonus features carrying forward to the Glory 4K release:
- Director’s Commentary
- Deleted Scenes with Commentary
- Virtual Civil War Battlefield Interactive Map
- “The True Story Continues” Documentary
- “The Voices of Glory” Featurette
- “The Making of Glory” Featurette
- Visual Feature-Length Commentary (on the 4K Ultra HD disc)

Glory is also coming back to theaters this summer on July 21st and 24th only. In addition, Fathom Events, Turner Classic Movies and Sony Pictures have partnered to bring Glory to the yearlong TCM Big Screen Classics series.
