Though it launched to mixed reviews in 2001, A Knight’s Tale has become something of a cult classic over the years, and soon fans can add the film to their 4K Blu-ray collection with the upcoming A Knight’s Tale 4K Steelbook edition. Preorders are now open ahead of its May 20 release, and along with a premium steelbook, it’s packed with never-before-seen features.

A Knight’s Tale 4K Steelbook features both a 4K and standard Blu-ray format of the film. The 4K version supports Dolby Vision HDR and Dolby Atmos surround sound. Both discs come in a gorgeous steelbook case.
Though it’s currently listed for $56, the price will likely drop ahead of launch. Preordering at Amazon means you won’t pay until the item ships, and you’ll be eligible for any price cuts between now and release.
