Visionary filmmaker David Cronenberg (Scanners, The Fly) and muse Viggo Mortensen (The Indian Runner, Green Book) follow up A History of Violence with another acclaimed joint effort, the mesmerizing Eastern Promises. Mortensen delivers an Oscar-nominated performance as Nikolai, a ruthless and mysterious Russian who has ties to one of the most dangerous crime families in London. His carefully maintained existence is jarred when he crosses paths with Anna (Naomi Watts, Mulholland Drive, King Kong), a midwife who has come across potentially damaging evidence against the family. Their unusual relationship sets off an unstoppable chain of deceit, death and retribution. Brilliantly written by Steven Knight (The Girl in the Spider’s Web) with terrific supporting turns by Vincent Cassel (Black Swan) and Armin Mueller-Stahl (Music Box), this brooding and provocative masterpiece is “no ordinary crime thriller, just as Cronenberg is no ordinary director” (Roger Ebert). Top-notch cinematography by Peter Suschitzky (Figures in a Landscape, Dead Ringers).

Wow that was unexpected day one for me!

brainofj72 · 05-08-2021, 03:02 PM

Holy moly what a great choice, did not expect this! Give it to me now!

BluAsa97 · 05-08-2021, 03:02 PM

Wooow!! Great news, Cronenberg on 4K!

Scottishguy · 05-08-2021, 03:04 PM

I totally predicted this.

tama · 05-08-2021, 03:09 PM

Now only if WB would take a chance in releasing A History of Violence.

Excellent surprise choice here.

When do you predict Criterion's first 4K release to be?

postmodel · 05-08-2021, 03:22 PM

Yes! Yes! Was not expecting this announcement but I am all over it. The more Cronenberg on 4K (while we still wait for Blu-rays of M Butterfly and Spider) the better this world is.

monstermidget · 05-08-2021, 03:25 PM

Viggo's beanbag in glorious 4k!

Scottishguy · 05-08-2021, 03:27 PM

The graveyard and barbershop scene's are going to look even more f'ed up in HDR.

Wow. That's an unexpected but completely delightful UHD reveal. I love Eastern Promises.

dallywhitty · 05-08-2021, 03:39 PM

Can't wait to see every inch of Viggo Mortensen's body in 4K.

Minimejer05 · 05-08-2021, 03:40 PM

This movie is beyond bad ass! I will definitely upgrade.

JackTwist · 05-08-2021, 03:47 PM

Oh happy day!!!! What a completely unexpected surprise! Thank you, Kino. Keep them coming!

Mr. Kino · 05-08-2021, 03:47 PM

Completely forgot this was an option, being an Universal/Focus title, but yeah, hell of a good surprise from Kino
Reminds me... when will The Fly get the 4k restoration and UHD blu-ray it deserves?

bergman864 · 05-08-2021, 03:49 PM

This is a nice surprise. I'm always game for more Cronenberg in 4K
