Paramount Home Entertainment has officially announced that the ’90s classic The Truman Show will be available to own on 4K UHD Blu-Ray for the first time on July 4, 2023 in honor of its 25th anniversary. Directed by Peter Weir and starring the incomparable Jim Carrey, the film was a box office and critical success, earning over $264 million worldwide and a 95% fresh critic rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
Nominated for three Academy Awards, THE TRUMAN SHOW is both wildly entertaining and a complex exploration of media consumption, surveillance, and reality TV that was ahead of its time and even more relevant today. The supporting cast includes Laura Linney, Ed Harris, Noah Emmerich, Natascha McElhone, Holland Taylor, Paul Giamatti, and Brian Delate. Get more details below!

Synopsis: Carrey stars as Truman Burbank, a man whose life is a nonstop TV show. Truman doesn’t realize that his quaint hometown is a giant studio set run by a visionary creator (Ed Harris), that folks living and working there are Hollywood actors, and that even his incessantly bubbly wife (Laura Linney) is a contract player. Gradually, Truman gets wise, and his response leaves viewers laughing, crying, and cheering like few films ever have.
THE TRUMAN SHOW has been fully remastered using scans of the original negative, with the new 4K version approved by Weir. The film is presented with Dolby Vision high dynamic range (HDR) and Dolby Atmos audio for a truly immersive experience. The 4K Ultra HD two-disc set includes the film on both 4K Ultra HD Disc and on Blu-ray, along with access to a Digital copy of the film and legacy bonus content on Blu-ray detailed below:
