Universal Studios Home Entertainment will unfurl the CGI-heavy Dracula Untold from director Gary Shore first on Digital HD with an early January 20, 2015 release date, followed by the disc-based Blu-ray and DVD release a couple weeks later on February 3, 2015.
Luke Evans (Fast & Furious 6), Dominic Cooper (Captain America: The First Avenger), Sarah Gadon and Charles Dance (Game of Thrones) star in the Dracula origin story that couldn’t quite spread its wings at the domestic box office. However, the nearly $60 million earned in North America was dwarfed by the $156.7 million earned internationally.
The Dracula Untold Blu-ray will be presented in 2.4:1 1080p video and 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio, and will be a combo pack release that also includes the feature film on DVD and Digital HD.
Blu-ray exclusive extras include:
- Alternate Opening
- Deleted Scenes
- The Land of Dracula – An exclusive interactive map that takes
fans deep into Dracula’s mysterious world, including Castle Dracula, Cozia
Monastery, Broken Tooth Mountain and Borga Pass. - Luke Evens – Creating a Legend
Shared extras with the standalone DVD edition include:
- Day in the Life – Luke Evans – Personal moments with the film’s star provide a glimpse into life on set.
- Dracula Retold – An exploration of the production, including costumes, sets and how the real history of Dracula is woven into the story.
- Slaying 1000 – A behind-the-scenes look at the making of Vlad’s epic battle against an army of thousands, from the script and visual effects.
