Paramount Home Entertainment has unveiled plans to bring the Star Trek films with Next Generation cast to Blu-ray Disc this fall, confirming months of rumors suggesting they were on the way.
On September 29, Paramount will release the Star Trek: The Next Generation Motion Picture Collection on Blu-ray and DVD which includes Star Trek: Generations, Star Trek: First Contact, Star Trek: Insurrection, Star Trek Nemesis, and a bonus disc. The set totals 5 discs and will offer the films in 1080p video and 5.1 Dolby TrueHD audio.
Star Trek: First Contact, a fan favorite, will be the only Next Generation film offered separately from the box set on the same date. Also debuting individually for the first time on Blu-ray are the “even” numbered films: Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan, Star Trek: The Voyage Home, and Star Trek: Undiscovered Country.
Complete details for the Next Generation set are as follows. Expect many of the Blu-ray exclusive bonus features to be offered in high definition.
