King Kong (1933) on 4K UHD — Two Editions, Pre-Orders Live
The original King Kong (1933) is coming to 4K UHD from Warner Bros in two collector releases, and pre-orders are live now in the US and UK. Directed by Merian C. Cooper and Ernest B. Schoedsack, the film follows an expedition to an uncharted South Pacific island, where Ann Darrow (Fay Wray) is captured as a sacrifice to Kong — and the giant ape's capture and escape in New York builds to one of the most famous finales ever filmed. Robert Armstrong and Bruce Cabot co-star, and the running time is 1 hour 44 minutes.
What's Inside the Collector's Edition
- Steelbook — the 4K UHD film housed in a Steelbook case (temporary artwork shown; final art to be announced)
- Envelope with paper premiums, a love letter to 1933 moviegoing:
- 1 movie ticket replica
- 1 movie poster
- Lobby cards (5)
- 1 lenticular
- 1 herald (multi-panel folded flyer)
Or Just the Steelbook
Prefer your shelf space back? Warner Bros is also releasing King Kong (1933) as a standalone 4K UHD Steelbook — the same film in the Steelbook case, without the Collector's Edition paper extras. Both editions are up for pre-order now; the artwork pictured is temporary and the final Steelbook design is still to be revealed.
Release Date
Warner Bros has not announced the street date yet — the release date and final artwork will be confirmed at a later date. Pre-orders are live now at US retailers including Amazon, so you can lock in your copy today and the date will follow. Current pricing is shown on the Amazon pages — check there before ordering, as prices can change before release.

Whether you go all-in on the Collector's Edition or keep it clean with the standalone Steelbook, this is a cornerstone release for any classic-film shelf.
