Unforgiven (Ken Watanabe) -- 28 July 2014 - Blu-ray Forum

Warner Bros. will release Unforgiven AKA 許されざる者 (Yurusarezaru mono) (2013) on Blu-ray in the UK on 28 July, apparently as a SteelBook edition only. The film is a Japanese-language remake of the 1992 Clint Eastwood film of the Same name, with Ken Watanabe taking the role played by Eastwood in the original film.

Warner also handled the film's release in Japan earlier this year. The Japanese release (which is not English-friendly) contains Panasonic's proprietary Master Grade Video Coding (MGVC) technology, which is only accessible on certain Japanese Blu-ray players from Panasonic. The technology utilizes the MVC codec to include additional information on the disc for full 36-bit color depth.

Surprisingly, the BBFC have classified some extras for this UK release, including the lengthy making-of documentary. Unfortunately, it does not appear that the audio commentary for the film is among them, so it would seem that is not being ported over.
