The 1959 epic “Ben-Hur” is reportedly coming to 4K UHD Blu-ray SteelBook on February 24th via Warner Bros. Discovery Home Entertainment, according to retailers. It will also come to the UK on February 27th. William Wyler directed the film. It starred Charlton Heston, Haya Harareet, Jack Hawkins, Stephen Boyd, and Hugh Griffith. It co-starred Martha Scott, Cathy O’Donnell, Sam Jaffe, Finlay Currie, and Frank Thring.

This features a 4K restoration, as previously seen at a TCM film festival. The tech specs and info about the bonus materials have yet to be detailed. However, it is known that the movie will be split up across two 4K UHD Blu-ray Discs and include a Blu-ray Disc for extras, making it a 3-disc set. You’ll have to wait until there’s an official announcement, though, for more details. There is no word on whether a digital code (copy) of the film will be included with the release or not. And, it should be noted that the artwork (above) is only temporary.

It seems that a standard 4K UHD Blu-ray release will be coming as well, according to a Barnes & Noble listing and a Zavvi listing. Those listings, however, do feature an incorrect [US] release date. It also seems a 4K UHD Blu-ray SteelBook Collector’s Edition will be coming as well, possibly stateside, according to a Zavvi listing. Preorder listings are now showing for the UK version, which will be released on 2/27 (as mentioned). In fact, that’s where the first hint at the US release date came from.

You can find the 4K UHD Blu-ray SteelBook available for preorder at Amazon, GRUV, and Walmart.
