Kino Lorber have confirmed that they are preparing a Blu-ray release of Michael Cimino's film Thunderbolt and Lightfoot (1974), which will be sourced from a brand new 4K remaster. The release is expected to arrive on the market later this year.

Synopsis: While stealing a car, free-spirited drifter Lightfoot (Jeff Bridges) crosses paths with legendary thief Thunderbolt (Clint Eastwood) in the midst of his own escape. Thunderbolt's old partners in crime, Red (George Kennedy) and Eddie (Geoffrey Lewis), believe he double-crossed them after they robbed a Montana bank vault several years ago. After Thunderbolt successfully pleads his innocence and is let off the hook, Lightfoot rallies them together as a group to rob the very same bank again.
