David Lynch’s Dune Getting Limited Edition 4K Blu-ray This Summer

Dune

With Denis Villeneuve’s upcoming adaptation of Dune just around the corner, now might be a great time to check out the David Lynch directed adaptation of the Frank Herbert novel. A Limited Edition 4K Blu-ray for the film has been revealed. It is expected to hit shelves on August 31, 2021, and you can pre-order it right now.

Courtesy of Arrow Video, the 1984 release of Dune will have two versions of its upcoming 4K Blu-ray release. The “Limited Edition” essentially serves as the standard version, and the Deluxe Limited Edition packs a few extra goodies the other version doesn’t include. While the on-disc content is virtually the same, the physical goodies vary slightly.
