In 2004, an all-star cast would bring to theaters an epic, legendary Trojan tale to life. Now 22 years later, Arrow Video brings it to your home theater on 4K UltraHD!
Synopsis: When Helen of Sparta (Diane Kruger), though married, elopes with the Trojan prince Paris (Orlando Bloom) and flees to Troy, they're followed by war of unimaginable proportions. Helen's husband Menelaus (Brendan Gleeson) summons a united army of Greece led by the arrogant Agamemnon (Brian Cox) and driven forward by the bold and courageous Achilles (Brad Pitt). As the armies of Greece and Troy clash, so too do their greatest champions - Achilles and Hector (Eric Bana) in a conflict that brings devastation to both kingdoms.
Wolfgang Peterson brings the ancient world to screen on the grandest of scales. Troy boasts of a tremendous cast including Brad Pitt, Eric Bana, Orlando Bloom, Diane Kruger, Brian Cox, Brendan Gleeson and Sean Bean. The action is out if this world and the story, while almost 3 hours, moves at a good pace.
Arrow Video has remastered both the Theatrical and Director’s Cuts in 4K, sourced from rescanned 35mm negatives and presented in Dolby Vision HDR. What results is a beautiful-looking film transfer. That will make any other version pale into insignificance.
