The one that started it out, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, will soon be available on 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray. The release comes in October as Disney continues to celebrate its 100th anniversary. The Walt Disney Animation Studios’ first ever animated feature has been special restored and remastered for this release. Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs will be available on October 10, 2023.
This is the first time that this film has been released in 4K UHD. It is a part of the Walt Disney Studios’ restoration program that utilizes new scans of the original nitrate negatives. This is then combined with creative input from Disney Animation experts Eric Goldberg (a modern master of Disney animation) and Michael Giaimo (production designer of Wish, Frozen, Frozen 2 and Pocahontas). The result is a version of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs that is more beautiful than ever. This restoration effort comes after the recently restored Cinderella, which was released on 4K UHD earlier this year.
This new Disney100 edition will be released across the nation and be in a special collectible O-sleeve. Different retailers will also have their own exclusive offerings. Best Buy will have a special Steelbook. Walmart will be offering animated titles in DIsney100 edition slipcovers along with a Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs collectible pin.
Here is the press release for Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray with all the details about this release.
