Some news about a big home release heading our way very soon. A Project A Blu-ray is one the way, and on 4K, too. The Jackie Chan film from 1983 is landing on 15th October.
This is a US release, coming to the home formats through distributor 88 Films in a Deluxe Limited-Edition 4K UHD + Blu-ray and Special Edition Blu ray box set.
Project A pits Dragon against a band of pirates who, after calamitous attempts at being captured, have the hero thinking outside of the box. He then decides to team up with an unusual array of cohorts, including a thief, a Navy admiral, and a police officer, to take down the terrorizers of the high seas.
Project A: Part II will also land on the same day as the Project A Blu-ray.
Project A: Part II has Dragon infiltrating the ranks of Hong Kong’s police department to investigate the newly minted police chief, who happens to be associated with the criminals and mobsters he’s been making a show of arresting.
Both films feature Sammo Hung, Yuen Biao, and Dick Wei, among others, and an impressive array of elaborate and electrifying stunt work that elevated Chan to superstardom, including the Clock Tower Stunt that many consider Chan’s greatest.

According to an official press release, the limited-edition set comes in a slipcase with brand-new artwork from Kung Fu Bob with a perfect-bound book featuring critical essays on both films, six replica lobby cards, and a double-sided foldout poster.
The special features include both the Hong Kong cut and extended Taiwan cut of the first film, an all-new interview with stuntman Mars recorded in 2024, archival interviews with Jackie Chan, the cast, writers, producers and stuntmen, newly translated subtitles, and more.
