Warner Home Video has announced the graphic novel adaptation of Constantine starring Keanu Reeves is coming to Blu-ray Disc on October 14.
Constantine had been released on June 6, 2006 exclusively on HD DVD due to its In-Movie Experience picture-in-picture feature which, at the time, Blu-ray players were incapable of handling.
Constantine on Blu-ray will be presented in widescreen 2.4:1 1080p video and likely the identical 5.1 Dolby TrueHD audio track found on the HD DVD, though that is currently speculation only.
All the supplemental features found on the HD DVD have carried over to Blu-ray and are outlined below.
