This may, Sony Pictures is giving one of the best “superhero” movies around, The Mask of Zorro the 4K treatment, even including never before seen deleted scenes.
The hill I will forever die on is that the Antonio Banderas Zorro movies are amazing and still as fun to watch today as when they initially released. I’m still bummed that we never got a third movie in that franchise. Alas, we can still enjoy the previous films, and soon Sony is giving us the chance to watch it in full 4K quality.
Scanned from the original camera negatives in 4K, The Mask of Zorro will arrive on May 5, 2020 with previously release bonus features as well as some brand new deleted scenes!
When a power-crazed despot schemes to buy California from Mexico, it takes two Zorros–the legendary Don Diego de la Vega (Anthony Hopkins) and his chosen successor Alejandro Murrieta (Antonio Banderas), a dashing bandit-turned-hero– to defeat the tyrant’s unscrupulous plans. But can even their combined skills, bravado and derring-do be enough to achieve de la Vega’s ultimate goal: revenge against the man who killed his wife, kidnapped his daughter and held him prisoner for twenty years?
