Warner Bros. Announces 4K 30th‑Anniversary Release of Tim Burton’s Mars Attacks!

Scheduled for August 11, the release spans digital 4K and two 4K UHD Blu‑ray editions, including a Limited Edition SteelBook, with newly promoted anniversary featurettes.

Overview

  • Warner Bros. announced Tuesday that Mars Attacks! will get a 4K Ultra HD upgrade and arrive on August 11, 2026, in both a digital 4K edition and 4K UHD Blu‑ray.
  • The studio will offer two physical editions: a standard 4K UHD Blu‑ray and a Limited Edition SteelBook, and pre‑orders are already live on retailers such as Amazon.
  • Press materials list two new special features called "Looking Back on Mars Attacks!" and "Ack! Ack! Aesthetic" that include newly recorded interview footage and a focus on the film’s visual effects history.
  • Warner Bros. has released box art and SteelBook images as part of a collector‑focused campaign that highlights the film’s large ensemble cast and Tim Burton’s distinctive style.
  • Coverage frames the release as a routine catalog refresh for a milestone anniversary and notes one key open question is whether Tim Burton appears in the new interviews, which could shape future promotional interest.
