Fans of both theMarvel Cinematic Universeand HD content have reason to celebrate, as the entire MCU is now available on 4K Ultra HD. The high-definition format has been picking up steam over the last couple of years, as more people are getting 4K capable TVs and Blu-ray players. Marvel and Disney, with the help of James Gunn, saw an opportunity there and, after slowly rolling out their various titles on 4K over the past couple of years, the collection is now complete.
The physical release ofSpider-Man: Far From Homejust hits shelves, which includes a 4K Ultra HD release. Additionally, Disney has also released the firstGuardians of the Galaxy,Ant-ManandDoctor Strangeon 4K as well, which marks the final entries in the MCU that hadn’t yet been available in the premium format. That means, fans who feel the need, can purchase every singleMCUmovie in the highest possible quality available in the physical media market. Though, there are a few things to consider.
That having been said, those who are still committed to physical media may have a much larger consideration to make in the near future. Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige has been teasing a possible Infinity Saga box set that would cover every movie from the first three phases of the MCU, fromIron MantoAvengers: Endgame. Undoubtedly, that potential set would be made available in 4K. So, those who like the MCU enough to shell out for that box set may find it redundant to purchase individual entries now. That said, for slightly more casual fans who don’t need to own every single MCU movie, now may be the perfect time to beef up the collection a bit.
This all started when director James Gunn convincedMarvelto releaseGuardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2on 4K, which wound up being the studio’s first release in the format. Since then, they’ve been getting the MCU back catalog up to speed. Now, much like Thanos assembling all of the Infinity Stones inInfinity War, the task is complete. For those curious about the price, the going rate on Amazon for most titles is around $30, withSpider-Man: Far From Homecurrently priced at $27.96. This news was previously reported byMCU Cosmic.
