Capote 2-Disc Limited Collector’s Edition Blu-ray/DVD in July

8 July 2025

Capelight Pictures and Altitude have announced that the Academy Award winning crime thriller, Capote will be re-released in the UK on a special 2-Disc Limited Collector’s Edition Blu-ray & DVD in July.

In 1959, Truman Capote learns of the murder of a Kansas family and decides to write a book about the case. While researching for his novel In Cold Blood, Capote forms a relationship with one of the killers, Perry Smith, who is on death row.

Directed by Bennett Miller (Foxcatcher, Moneyball) and starring Philip Seymour Hoffman as Truman Capote, the film was first released to critical acclaim in 2005. Capote received 5 Oscar nominations; Best Picture, Best Adapted Screenplay (Dan Futterman), Best Supporting Actress (Catherine Keener) and Best Director (Bennett Miller), and Best Actor (Philip Seymour Hoffman).

The late Philip Seymour Hoffman, whom Empire described as "miraculously well-cast", delivered a career defining performance as Truman Capote – a role that earned him his first and only Academy Award for best actor, making the movie exceptionally memorable.
