This enchanting film can soon be enjoyed in the comfort of your home on digital platforms and 4K Ultra Blu-ray, making it an ideal choice for family movie nights.

The restoration of “Alice in Wonderland” was no small feat. The Walt Disney Film Restoration team dedicated nine months to digitally scanning the original film, painstakingly addressing issues like dust, warping, and age-induced wear. Their goal was to breathe new life into this timeless tale while staying true to its original charm.

To ensure authenticity, the team referenced original production artwork preserved by the Walt Disney Animation Research Library. In collaboration with Michael Giaimo, a seasoned veteran of Walt Disney Animation Studios, they meticulously reviewed each frame to refine the film’s color and luminance, capturing the essence of the movie’s original vision.

Kevin Schaeffer, Director of Restoration & Library Management, expressed his enthusiasm in a press release, stating, “The original animation artists’ work on ‘Alice in Wonderland’ is stunning, and we’re proud to present it with renewed clarity and vibrancy. This milestone restoration brings new depth and dimension to the film’s imaginative world, offering a vibrant presentation for longtime fans and a new generation of audiences alike.”

For those eager to explore beyond the main feature, the Blu-ray and digital release offers a treasure trove of bonus content. Delve into rare behind-the-scenes material and archival footage, including commentary from Alice’s original voice actress, Kathryn Beaumont. Additional treats include classic companion shorts like “Thru the Mirror” featuring Mickey Mouse, along with deleted scenes and music videos such as “Beware the Jabberwock” and “If You’ll Believe in Me.”

Mark your calendars for a very important date: May 5. Whether you’re a longtime admirer or a curious newcomer, don’t miss out on this “unbirthday” gift. Dive into the magical world of “Alice in Wonderland” with its newly restored digital and 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray editions.
