The 1951 hand-drawn classic animated film Disney’s “Alice in Wonderland“ is coming to 4K UHD Blu-ray on May 5th via Disney.

Clyde Geronimi, Wilfred Jackson, and Hamilton Luske co-directed the film. Also, Jack Kinney was said to have co-directed the film, but remains uncredited (according to IMDb). The movie featured the voice talents of Kathryn Beaumont (as “Alice”), Ed Wynn, Richard Haydn, Sterling Holloway, Jerry Colonna, Verna Felton, J. Pat O’Malley, and Bill Thompson.

The movie has received a new 4K restoration. In fact, here are some details about that.

In celebration of its 75th anniversary, Alice in Wonderland has been meticulously restored and remastered in 4K Ultra HD by the Walt Disney Film Restoration team. Over nine months, artists completed a digital scan of the original nitrate Successive Exposure (SE) negatives, followed by extensive clean-up to address dust, warping, and age-related wear. The team also referenced original production artwork preserved by the Walt Disney Animation Research Library to ensure the restoration remained true to the filmmakers’ original intent, collaborating closely with Walt Disney Animation Studios veteran Michael Giaimo to review every shot and refine color and luminance.
 
“The original animation artists’ work on Alice in Wonderland is stunning, and we’re proud to present it with renewed clarity and vibrancy,” said Kevin Schaeffer, Director of Restoration & Library Management. “This milestone restoration brings new depth and dimension to the film’s imaginative world, offering a vibrant presentation for longtime fans and a new generation of audiences alike.”

The tech specs for the 4K UHD Blu-ray include a 2160p video presentation in a 1.33:1 (4×3) aspect ratio with Dolby Vision (HDR10-compatible) high dynamic range and lossless DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 surround sound on a BD-66 disc. It will also feature lossless Dolby Digital Mono sound. The release will come as a 2-disc “combo pack” with its Blu-ray Disc counterpart included, along with a digital code (copy) compatible with Movies Anywhere.
