Sci-fi classic “Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope” is getting a Zavvi exclusive 4K Steelbook release
Talk about this release on Slack
Zavvi are bringing us this new 4K steelbook release of the first Star Wars film, Episode IV – A New Hope, featuring the iconic original poster art. The release will include the film on 4K and Blu-ray disc, as well as bonus Blu-ray full of extras.
Pre-orders are due to go live at Zavvi on Thursday May 7th so ignore any ‘sold out’ notices before then.
They’ll be live around 9am UK time for Red Carpet subscribers (though possibly earlier, so keep an eye on our Twitter feed, just in case…), and around 12 noon for everyone else. Our Red Carpet links don’t work properly for some reason, so you may need to log in first, then click the link again. Once the Red Carpet period is up, the link will work fine.
And yes, we’re fully expecting all the films to get a release over the coming months, again using the original poster art, and we’ll keep you updated on the exact plans as we find out.

Is it just a new hope or are they releasing all the star war steelbooks in 4k
Adam Turner all of them eventually
Steelbook Blu Ray News are they all coming out the same day or do u just have news on this one
Steelbook Blu Ray News any idea on the price
Was fully expecting 3D steelbooks. Disney Plus already has them on 4K.
Looks Nice! ?
Ricky Wait lol
Yess
Christopher
Scott Hamilton ooooh
Zavvi only or will Best Buy in America get them also?
Hector Molina Best Buy may do yeah
Damn, already got the 2015 steelbooks but this looks much better.
Jason Worsell same here but I’m still gonna get these for 4k ?
I’m assuming it’s the maclunkey edition?
David Tiggemann you wouldn’t want it any other way
David Tiggemann what’s a maclunkey edition???
Steelbook Blu Ray News does any copies exist that had Declan Mullholland as Jabba the Hutt before he turned into a slug
Stuart Robinson no, that footage has only ever been seen as part of deleted footage in documentaries. Never included in any official cut of the film
Mike Traylen We have to get these! The artwork is amazing ?
Do you think they will re-release the existing 4K steelbooks so there is a matching set? I think it’s just episodes 8, 9 and Solo which already have 4K Steelbooks?
they will all be getting a release, including Solo and Rogue One, my understanding is they will make a matching set using each film’s original art
Thanks!!
For the time being could be only way to own the original trilogy without having to buy all 9 as a set.
Salvio Rà
Duke Goodman. You guys getting anything like this?
Mark Cordell not that im aware. I hope so. It does say exclusive but that term means nothing anymore. Im definitely going to keep an eye out.
Duke Goodman that only means that zoom or hmv wont have it (for a while at least) doesnt apply to other markets
Tell you what – swap for that helmet of yours ?
Leo Calder
Sue Tunstall if wanted 4k versiob
Beautiful
Richard McKay
Michael Hunter
Lyndon Cutting told you
Michael Hunter did you send the boxset back
Lyndon Cutting no mate the extras are way to good . ?
Michael Hunter I’m keeping mine aswell
Phil Cox
Andrew M Haynes Now that I like! ???
Phil Cox does like nice but I’d prefer the original cut. Never gonna happen tho. Have seen the 4k version on Disney+ – looks very good but shows up the low budget!
Andy Barbieri, Daz Arrowsmith, Mark Kopite, Jimmy Frankland
Angus Van Hanson looks good ?
Angus Van Hanson cool. Tempted.
Angus Van Hanson the first of many for Star Wars movies, or so I hear ?
Andy Barbieri # You’l need to update ya TV to 4k first though.. Perfect timing what with the PS5 out later in the year too ??
No rush on 4K for me. Still more than happy with the 1080p TV I have 😀
Brenda Romero
Albert Deleon how dope!!!!
Steelbook Blu Ray News any idea on what time this will be live to pre-order?ive been told midnight tonight?
Do this include only the 4K version of the film?
Andrew Collyer It should be the 4K, Blu-ray and bonus disc
Caylee Sandwith love myself a Steelbook
John Skilbeck
Alex DiPietro ?
That’s the inside artwork
Red carpet must have snapped them all up.
It’s got sold out for me
It’s not over.
Well. It’s not over.
It is not over yet. I was able preorder it today. When will it be out?
Any news about a non Steelbook 4K release ? Or a release date for this, or how they are going to stagger the Steelbook releases ?
I’ve ordered, but what is the release date?
Carl Bentley still TBC, but my guess would be August ish
This was sold out in 24 hours. Zavvi need to stop people buying more than 2 copies. Red Carpst subscribers are buying multiple copies and then flogging them on EBay for twice the price. Same happened with Jaws.
