Fans of Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy will be able to pick up a new 4K release of the film this summer.
ANCHORMAN: THE LEGEND OF RON BURGUNDY will celebrate its 20th anniversary this year and Paramount Home Entertainment will mark the occasion by releasing the absurdly hilarious, star-studded comedy on 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray Disc™ for the first time ever on July 2, 2024.
Released in theatres on July 9, 2004, ANCHORMAN: THE LEGEND OF RON BURGUNDY marked the feature directorial debut of Adam McKay and was written by McKay and Will Ferrell, who stars as the titular, mustachioed hero. The film features a veritable pantheon of comedic talent, including Christina Applegate, Paul Rudd, Steve Carell, David Koechner, and Fred Willard, along with a cavalcade of cameos.
Set in the 1970s, ANCHORMAN: THE LEGEND OF RON BURGUNDY tells the hard-hitting ridiculously funny story of a testosterone-filled newsroom threatened by the arrival of an ambitious female anchor. Endlessly quotable and enduringly hilarious, ANCHORMAN: THE LEGEND OF RON BURGUNDY is widely considered to be one of the greatest comedies
of all time.
The 20th Anniversary 4K Ultra HD/Blu-ray™ set includes the remastered theatrical version of the film in sparkling 4K Ultra HD, plus two Blu-ray Discs with more than two hours of legacy bonus content, including cast auditions, deleted scenes, bloopers, an “Afternoon
Delight” music video, and much, much more.
In addition, fans can enjoy both the theatrical and extended cuts of the film on Blu-ray, as
well as WAKE UP, RON BURGUNDY: THE LOST MOVIE, a 92-minute film featuring outtakes and unused storylines from the original movie.
