The team at Imprint Films has announced a special SteelBook edition of The NeverEnding Story, which is set to release in late August.

This new release will follow up on the 4K 40th Anniversary release in December last year. There was, however, no Steelbook release at that time, so this is for the collectors who love Steelboks, like myself.

Like the previous release, this 4K UHD release will feature the US Theatrical Cut of the film, and features Dolby Vision. There is also the German Extended Cut available here, but only on Blu-ray.
