Doesn't seem like it's the case, but it would have made sense to have a separate disc for extras. A 143 minute movie plus 100 minutes of HD extras on one Blu-ray disc will probably heavily reduce the bit rate. WB did a separate extras disc for The Matrix films in 4K, and those extras were SD. So why not this one?

WB France is producing a bonus disc (exclusive to the 4-disc Fnac steelbook), will be interesting to see what is on that.
