VALKYRIE on DVD and Blu-ray

The remarkable yet seldom told true story of the German Resistance's attempted coup and assassination of Adolf Hitler reveals itself when VALKYRIE is released on Blu-ray Disc and Special Edition DVD with Digital Copy on May 19 from MGM Home Ent.

Based on the incredible true story of Colonel Claus von Stauffenberg (Tom Cruise) and his ingenious assassination plot targeting Adolf Hitler, this engrossing thriller reenacts the daring operation to eliminate one of the most evil tyrants the world has ever known. Co-starring Kenneth Branagh, Bill Nighy, Tom Wilkinson, Terence Stamp and Eddie Izzard, Valkyrie delivers gripping suspense and pulse-pounding excitement from start to finish.

Director Bryan Singer has a track record with digital visual effects, having made two X-MEN movies. But his latest project, the MGM release VALKYRIE, was the polar opposite of a CG "look-at-me" assignment. This World War II tale based on an actual plot to stop Adolf Hitler demanded invisible effects that would help the production recreate 1940's Germany.

For this, Singer called upon veteran VFX Supervisor Rich Hoover and Sony Pictures Imageworks, which had previously worked with the director on SUPERMAN RETURNS. "VALKYRIE is obviously not an effects movie per se," says Hoover, whose many credits include ARMAGEDDON and SEABISCUIT. "There are really two key issues in this film. One is that Colonel Von Stauffenberg, the German officer played by Tom Cruise, lost an eye, a hand and two fingers on his other hand after a battle in North Africa. The second issue was restoring Berlin to a 1943 period look, creating vintage airplanes and augmenting explosions."
