As a long-time Stephen King fan and avid gamer with a soft spot for collectible items, I can’t help but feel excited about the recent announcement of The Stand 30th Anniversary SteelBook Edition Blu-ray. I remember watching the 1994 television event multiple times as a teenager, drawn in by the intriguing storyline and top-notch performances from an all-star cast.
Paramount Home Media Distribution has announced the release of a special edition Blu-ray of Mick Garris’ film adaptation of Stephen King’s epic novel, “The Stand.” This version, marking the 30th anniversary of the release, is presented in a SteelBook case by Paramount.
In September 2024, the 1994 limited TV program will be made available in a fresh version, exclusively at Walmart.
The SteelBook edition doesn’t include any additional content beyond what was originally included in the Blu-ray release. Yet, its appealing SteelBook packaging may still draw collectors in.

In Stephen King’s apocalyptic world vision, where a plague has left only a few of us alive, I find myself amongst the survivors, trying to make sense of this new reality. The air is heavy with tension as two factions emerge: those who follow the malevolent Randall Flagg and those who stand for good. Flagg’s followers are determined to rebuild the world in his twisted image, while we, a brave quartet, embark on a mission to thwart their plans.
Derived from Stephen King’s acclaimed and much-loved novel, this film version boasts an impressive ensemble cast including Gary Sinise, Molly Ringwald, Jamey Sheridan, Laura San Giacomo, Ruby Dee, Ossie Davis, Miguel Ferrer, Corin Nemec, Matt Frewer, Adam Storke, Ray Walston, and Rob Lowe.
I was thrilled to see Stephen King’s The Stand being brought to life once more as a nine-episode television miniseries in 2020, this time for Paramount. As a dedicated gamer and fan of apocalyptic stories, I couldn’t wait to witness the epic tale unfold on my screen. The star-studded cast included familiar faces like Whoopi Goldberg and James Marsden, as well as newcomers such as Alexander Skarsgård, Odessa Young, Gordon Cormier, Owen Teague, and Amber Heard. I eagerly anticipated diving into this post-apocalyptic world through their compelling performances.
Stephen King’s works have consistently provided terrifying content for television. Notable adaptations include “IT” miniseries, “Under the Dome,” “Lisey’s Story,” “11.22.63,” “Castle Rock,” and “Mr. Mercedes.” The upcoming addition will be an “IT” prequel series named “Welcome to Derry.” In this new project, Bill Skarsgård will once again bring Pennywise the Clown to life on the big screen.
