Our new releases are being assembled at the replicator now. Unfortunately time is against us and end of year closures will disrupt final distribution a little. The official release dates for A HERO NEVER DIES and ACCIDENT will now be January 7, however some individual deliveries will trickle through earlier.

ACCIDENT has been delivered to the replicator, which means both new Blu-ray titles are on track for late-December release. The exact date is still TBC. Our warehouse will remain open throughout most of the holiday period so we can continue shipping parcels of joy despite probably just missing out on delivery before Christmas. We will do our best, but just a heads up.

We are going to have a little break now. Hope everyone is looking forward to a merry end of year and hopefully having more time to watch movies.

Quick update about our new releases: A HERO NEVER DIES has been sent to the replicator for manufacturing and is on track for a December release. ACCIDENT is going through final QC and won't be too far behind.

Soi Cheang orchestrated one of Milkyway’s most intensely personal achievements with ACCIDENT, a riveting thriller with an unsettling take on urban life in Hong Kong and fate.

We were delighted to interview Soi at length for the Blu-ray release, and to learn that he still considers the film to be one of the most significant of his career.

It was also wonderful to have the brilliant Adrian Martin agree to provide critical audio commentary for the release. Plus, we have new written and video essays from The Fanatical Dragon and Zach Closs, newly translated and improved English subtitles by Dylan Cheung, and archival extras.

Finally, also available is a Special Edition version that additionally includes the CD soundtrack, the third of our collaborations with composer extraordinaire Xavier Jamaux.

Released - December/January 2025-26

Every frame has been digitally cleaned up for the Blu-ray release.

Glimpse of our second forthcoming title. I don't think it will take long to guess this one...

On board is an illuminating new interview with the director, an audio commentary by film critic Adrian Martin, new video and written essays from Zach Closs and The Fanatical Dragon respectively, new English subtitles by Dylan Cheung, plus additional bonus.

We are also releasing a version with the never-before-pressed CD soundtrack!

More revealed soon, and just to confirm: this title will be available to pre-order along with '008' - A Hero Never Dies.

Apologies for the radio silence, we are working hard so we can announce our next TWO titles.

The first you already know, the next is almost ready to reveal. We will open pre-orders for both titles simultaneously, with a gap, as short as possible, between the replication dates.
