To mark its 20th anniversary, 20th Century Studios has revealed that they will be releasing the remastered Director’s Cut of Ridley Scott’s 2005 epic drama “Kingdom of Heaven” in 4K and Blu-ray format on a specific date. This movie features Orlando Bloom, who gained fame from The Lord of the Rings trilogy, as Balian of Ibelin.
The film is considered one of Scott’s most highly respected works, as it has constructed a captivating universe filled with historical depth, adventure, and breathtaking visuals, providing the backdrop for an epic story. In this movie, Bloom portrays Balian, a brave young Frenchman living during the Crusades in medieval Jerusalem. Having suffered great loss, Balian discovers his purpose by engaging in a valiant struggle – against seemingly insurmountable opposition – to protect his people and realize his destiny as a knight.
