“Star Trek” Next Gen Films Set 4K Release

Paramount Pictures

Paramount Pictures has officially announced that all four “Star Trek: The Next Generation” movies will be making the leap to 4K with plans for a 4K Ultra HD disc release on April 4th – just in time for First Contact Day.

All four films – “Star Trek: Generations,” “Star Trek: First Contact,” “Star Trek: Insurrection” and “Star Trek: Nemesis” – will be available in a boxset presented in an illustrated slipcase that will include each movie fully remastered for a 4K Ultra HD disc release in Dolby Vision and HDR-10, as well as a fully remastered Blu-ray. The 4K also includes a 7.1 Dolby TrueHD audio track.

The four movies will also be available individually, with each film including all legacy bonus content as well as access to a Digital copy. The discs include plenty of commentary tracks, featurettes, deleted scenes, trailers and archive material.

Paramount has been a little odd with its video release. Initially, they dropped the 4K version of “Star Trek: The Motion Picture – Director’s Edition” in 2021 and then released the first four original “Star Trek” films followed by the original cast’s final two movies last year.

With this release, every “Star Trek” film will finally be available in 4K and joins The Original Series, The Next Generation and Enterprise on Blu-ray – leaving only Deep Space Nine and Voyager as the two shows yet to make the jump beyond standard definition.
