Home Media Retailing has scored quite the scoop and a look at some new artwork for brand new upcoming editions of Peter Jackson’s Lord of the Rings Trilogy.
New Line Home Entertainment will be releasing limited edition releases of The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers and The Return of the King with each including the following:
For each film, disc one presents both the theatrical version of the film and its extended edition through seamless branching, while disc two features an intimate, never-before-seen documentary created by Costa Botes. The feature-length documentaries, with more than 300 minutes of never-before-available footage, focus on a number of complexities and circumstances and affected the making of the movies.
The DVDs will be hitting shelves on August 29 according to the site and will be retailing around $28.98 each. You can click here for a slightly larger look at the image above and the full story.
The only detail I believe will change is the number of discs considering the extended editions spanned 2 discs each when they were released, that is unless New Line is not including all the special feature commentaries or the DTS tracks. We will have to wait for the official announcment to find that out.
