60 years after its original release, The Sound of Music is returning, but this time, in 4K. To mark the milestone anniversary, the Walt Disney Film Restoration team has restored the musical so that fans can experience the nostalgia from watching in ultra-high definition. The remastered version will be available in cinemas and then on Blu-ray later this year.

The 1965 classic was brought to life by director Robert Wise, and starred the iconic Julie Andrews and Christopher Plummer as the lead actors. Being one of the most cherished films in movie history, its upcoming 4K restoration aims to elevate the stunning visuals and timeless soundtrack, to provide a fresh experience for both longtime fans and new audiences.

The Walt Disney Film Restoration team spent up to nine months to digitally scan and work on the preserved film footage. They ensured every frame was cleaned carefully to remove dirt, dents, and other imperfections, so that its breathtaking landscapes and vibrant costumes can shine brighter than the original.

With enhanced color accuracy and improved audio quality, this restoration honors the film’s legacy while preserving its magic for future generations. Fans are excited about the much anticipated re-release, even though some have watched The Sound of Music several times.
