“Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs” is getting the 4K treatment. Disney announced Wednesday morning its plans to release a meticulously restored and remastered 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray edition of their inaugural animated film. The remastered version will be available on Amazon starting Oct. 10.
The endeavor is part of The Walt Disney Studios’ ongoing commitment to major restoration projects, employing new scans derived from the original nitrate negative. The restoration process benefits from the artistic insights of Disney Animation luminaries Eric Goldberg, renowned for his mastery in Disney animation, and Michael Giaimo, the creative force behind “Frozen,” “Frozen 2,” “Wish” and “Pocahontas.”
The Blu-ray release is part of Disney’s 100th-anniversary celebration, and follows the successful 4K UHD restoration of “Cinderella” earlier this week.
