Martin Scorsese's 'Silence' Blu-ray Announced and Detailed

The acclaimed drama starring Andrew Garfield, Adam Driver, and Liam Neeson will be available on home video next month.

In an early announcement to retailers, Warner Archive is working on 'Silence' for Blu-ray on March 28.

Hailed by critics as "brilliant" (Justin Chang, Los Angeles Times), "powerful" (Brian Truitt, USA Today), "stunning" (Helen O Hara, GQ), and "gorgeous" (Stephanie Zacharek, Time), Silence tells the story of two Christian missionaries (Adam Driver and Andrew Garfield) who travel to Japan in search of their missing mentor (Liam Neeson) at a time when Christianity had been outlawed. Captured and imprisoned, both men are plunged into an odyssey that will test their faith, challenge their sanity and, perhaps, risk their very lives. Called "essential filmmaking from a modern master" (Peter Travers, Rolling Stone), Silence is "a film for the ages" (Glenn Whipp, Los Angeles Times).

The Blu-ray will feature 1080p video, lossless 5.1 audio, and supplements include "Martin Scorsese's Journey into Silence," an in-depth exploration of the director's quest to make this extraordinary film, which is packed with in-depth interviews and behind the scenes footage. In addition, the film's stars, Andrew Garfield, Liam Neeson and Adam Driver, discuss how they prepared for their roles, as well as their favorite moments on set.
