Alex Garland’s Civil War Is Getting An Amazon-Exclusive 4K Blu-Ray Edition

Alex Garland’s Civil War just hit theaters on April 12, but preorders are already open for the 4K UHD version of the film. In fact, two different versions are up for grabs–an Amazon-exclusive version and a standard version, each with unique artwork. We’re still waiting for an official release date, but we can’t imagine it’ll launch for several months.

$35-$42

The Amazon exclusive version of Civil War includes both a 4K UHD copy and Blu-ray copy, as well as a digital version of the film. Unfortunately, that’s everything we know for now, as no details about special features or whether a steelbook is included have been revealed (though it certainly looks like it’s packaged in a steelbook). It does, however, come with exclusive cover art depicting a close-up shot of the Statue of Liberty. Expect to learn more in the coming weeks.

If you’re not a fan of the cover art on the Amazon-exclusive edition, the Civil War standard edition is also available to preorder. It’s actually more expensive at the moment ($42), but it includes the same formats: 4K UHD Blu-ray, Blu-ray, and digital. Its cover art is a sprawling shot of New York Harbor.

Civil War is the latest film from Alex Garland, whose previous work includes Annihilation, Ex Machina, and 28 Days Later. It takes place in a future, dystopian version of America, where civil war has erupted across the nation as four different factions vie for control of the land. Its cast includes Kirsten Dunst, Wagner Moura, Cailee Spaeny, Stephen McKinley Henderson, Sonoya Mizuno, and Nick Offerman.

Our Civil War review gave the film a 9/10, praising it for its chaotic storytelling and a standout performance from Dunst.

“Civil War will work best as an experiential thing, like an atrocity-filled theme park ride that’s a bit more dense than your average Purge flick while still hitting some of the same sweet spots that those movies did,” wrote critic Phil Owen. “It’s so effective as an experience that I was able to brush off a climactic contrivance that would have seriously annoyed me in any other movie. And I can’t help but love a movie that pulls me in that hard. At least for now.”
