    "Classic"?!? More like one of the Disney movies most people have
    forgotten even existed and bombed at the box office.


    Classic Disney Movie Getting 4K Release for 25th Anniversary
    ------------------------------------------------------------
    A classic Disney movie is getting the 4K treatment ahead of its
    25th anniversary, celebrating a fan-favorite animated movie.

    What Disney classic is getting a new 4K release?
    The 2000 classic animated comedy The Emperor's New Groove is
    getting a new 4K release, as well as a special theatrical run
    at Los Angeles' El Capitan Theatre from November 21-23, 2025.
    The 4K release is set to arrive on December 9, 2025, and will
    also coincide with a new release on digital platforms.

    The 4K release will include the 4K UHD, digital, and Blu-ray
    versions of the film, allowing fans to watch any of the versions
    they want.

    Originally released in 2000, The Emperor's New Groove stars
    David Spade as Emperor Kuzco, an emperor who is transformed into
    a llama by his ex-advisor, and must navigate how to return to his
    body while learning about himself. Alongside Spade, the movie
    also stars John Goodman, Eartha Kitt, Patrick Warburton, and
    Wendie Malick.

    The film was directed by Mark Dindal and written by David
    Reynolds, and actually wasn't a massive hit upon release.
    However, the movie became even bigger after its home media
    release, and was 2001's best-selling home video release. In the
    years since, the movie has become one fans of Disney look back on
    fondly. It's also the subject of underground documentary
    The Sweatbox, which chronicles the complicated production with
    several animator interviews.

    More information on the film's 4K release is likely to come in
    the future, including a look at what special features might be on
    the release - as well as pricing.
