The science fiction action-adventure arrives on both formats this November.
In an early announcement to retailers, Lionsgate says 'Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets' is headed for a Blu-ray and Ultra HD Blu-ray release on November 21.
In the 28th century, Valerian (Dane DeHaan) and Laureline (Cara Delevingne) are a team of special operatives charged with maintaining order throughout the human territories. Under assignment from the Minister of Defense, the two embark on a mission to the astonishing city of Alpha—an ever-expanding metropolis where species from all over the universe have converged over centuries to share knowledge, intelligence, and cultures with each other. There is a mystery at the center of Alpha, a dark force which threatens the peaceful existence of the City of a Thousand Planets, and Valerian and Laureline must race to identify the marauding menace and safeguard not just Alpha, but the future of the universe.
Each release will feature a Dolby Atmos soundtrack (the 4K release will also include Dolby Vision) and supplements include: "Citizens of Imagination: Creating the Universe of Valerian" Multi-Part Documentary; Enhancement Pods; and "The Art of Valerian" Photo Gallery.
