One of the most legendary films from DC’s catalog of animated movies is getting a 4K release, as DC announced that All-Star Superman will release on 4K Ultra HD on April 18, 2023.
The film was originally released in 2011 and is based on Grant Morrison’s iconic twelve-issue run of comics that ran from 2005-2008. The story of All-Star Superman follows a Superman that is dying due to overexposure to the Sun and aims to accomplish as many heroic feats as he can before he dies.
The 4K Ultra HD version of the film will retail for $33.99 and will be available both online and in-store at major retailers.
Leading the cast of All-Star Superman is James Denton (Good Witch, Desperate Housewives), Christina Hendricks (Mad Men, Good Girls) and Anthony LaPaglia (Without A Trace) as Superman, Lois Lane, and Lex Luthor, respectively.
Other cast members include seven-time Emmy Award winner Ed Asner (Up, Elf, The Mary Tyler Moore Show) as Perry White, Golden Globe winner Frances Conroy (American Horror Story, Joker, Six Feet Under) as Ma Kent, Matthew Gray Gubler (Criminal Minds, Alvin and the Chipmunks franchise) as Jimmy Olsen, and Linda Cardellini (Avengers: Endgame, Dead to Me, ER) as Nasty.
The rest of the cast includes Arnold Vosloo (The Mummy), Steve Blum (Star Wars: Rebels, Cowboy Bebop, Naruto), Catherine Cavadini (Elvis), Finola Hughes (General Hospital), Alexis Denisof (Guardians of the Galaxy), Obba Babatunde (S.W.A.T.), John DiMaggio (Futurama), Chris Cox (Family Guy), Robin Atkin Downes (The Strain, Batman: The Long Halloween), Kevin Michael Richardson (Mortal Kombat, The Simpsons), Fred Tatasciore (Star Trek: Lower Decks, American Dad!), and Michael Gough (Batman: Arkham Origins).
Alongside the movie, the 4K Ultra HD version of All-Star Superman comes packed with a ton of bonuses, including two new featurettes and an older one that features a detailed look at Grant Morrison’s original sketches and ideas of the film. Audio commentary featuring Bruce Timm and Grant Morrison are also on the disc, as is the digital comic book version of All-Star Superman.
