40 years ago, Steven Spielberg’s classic brought us to tears with ET. To mark the anniversary, a special edition will be released in 4K in October.

It’s been half a lifetime since director Steven Spielberg moved us to tears with the extraterrestrial ET and was formative for the science fiction genre. But the mega-success lives on, at least in the hearts of the somewhat older ones.
The anniversary Blu-ray explores whether younger generations are jumping in too. It counts up the movie to 4K pixel count. The film is also available as a steel book as a limited special edition. New bonus material further spices up the classic, which tells of the friendship between a young alien and a terrestrial boy – which is admittedly not without its dangers and a lot of confusion.
The anniversary edition will hit home theaters on October 20th.
