'Oblivion' Announced and Detailed for Blu-ray

The sci-fi blockbuster starring Tom Cruise and Morgan Freeman will crash land on Blu-ray this August.

In an early announcement to retailers, Universal Studios is working on 'Oblivion' for a Blu-ray release on August 6.

The Blu-ray/DVD/UV Digital Copy will have 1080p video, a DTS-HD Master Audio 7.1 soundtrack, and supplements include: Feature Commentary with Tom Cruise and director Joseph Kosinski; Deleted Scenes; Isolated Score; and Promise of a New World - The Making of Oblivion.
