The classic science-fiction/comedy Galaxy Quest celebrates its 25th anniversary with a 4K UHD Blu-ray on December 3. The release will also be available in a SteelBook.
The 4K release is newly remastered under the supervision of director Dean Parisot and presented in Dolby Vision with a Dolby Atmos soundtrack. Supplements include a new Filmmaker Focus with the director as well as legacy features including the previously created Thermian language track.
Years after cancellation, the stars of the television series Galaxy Quest cling to their careers. When a distressed interstellar race mistakes the show for “historical documents,” lead actor Jason Nesmith (Tim Allen) and his crew of has-beens are unwittingly recruited to save the alien race from a genocidal warlord. Featuring an all-star ensemble, including Sigourney Weaver, Alan Rickman, Tony Shalhoub, Sam Rockwell, Daryl Mitchell, Justin Long and Rainn Wilson, GALAXY QUEST is a hilarious adventure that boldly goes where no comedy has gone before.
