Shout Factory and Kino Lorber have been releasing a bevy of titles for new 4K physical media and Blu-ray.com has now announced that the Tom Cruise film Born on the Fourth of July, which was directed by Oliver Stone, is now set for a new Collector’s Edition Ultra High-Definition Blu-ray. The remastered film is due to hit retailers the day after Veteran’s Day on November 12.
The movie stars Tom Cruise, Kyra Sedgwick, Raymond J. Barry, Jerry Levine, and Frank Whaley. The description reads, “Tom Cruise delivers a riveting and unforgettable portrayal of Vietnam veteran and activist Ron Kovic in Oliver Stone’s Academy Award®-winning* masterpiece. Based on a true story, the acclaimed film follows Kovic from a zealous teen who eagerly volunteered for the Vietnam War, to an embittered veteran paralyzed from the mid-chest down. Deeply in love with his country, Kovic returned to an environment vastly different from the one he left and struggled greatly before emerging as a brave new voice for his fellow soldiers and countrymen.”
