Australian label Imprint Films has provided a promotional trailer for its exclusive new 4K restoration of Ron Shelton's neo-noir thriller Dark Blue (2002), starring Kurt Russell, Scott Speedman, Michael Michele, Brendan Gleeson, and Ving Rhames. A 4K Blu-ray/Blu-ray release is scheduled to arrive on the market on April 29.

When viewing the trailer, please make sure to set resolution to 2160p/4K.

Neo-noir crime thriller Dark Blue comes to 4K Blu-ray for the first time worldwide, fully restored from the original 35mm negative.

Starring Kurt Russell, Ving Rhames, and Brendan Gleeson, director Ron Shelton helmed this tense tale of corruption and obsession, packed with explosive drama and twisted police brutality. Set in the Los Angeles Police Department in 1992, Dark Blue is a thriller that takes place just days before the acquittal of four white officers in the beating of black motorist Rodney King and the subsequent L.A. riots. In this racially charged climate, the LAPD's elite Special Investigations Squad is assigned a quadruple homicide. As they work the case, Detective Eldon (Kurt Russell) tutors SIS rookie Bobby (Scott Speedman) in the realities of police intimidation and corruption.
