We were aware of this upcoming release for a while, but the official presse release just a week ago. We can now officially add Mission: Impossible Rogue Nation to the list of movies with Dolby Atmos. The movie will be available on December 15th.
Sony Pictures Home Entertainment just announced that the action movie Pixels will be released on October 27th with a Dolby Atmos soundtrack in both 3D and 2D.
The release schedule for this fall is getting very interesting with a good quantity of new Dolby Atmos titles. We will have three titles released on October 27th, which is unseen since the initial launch. I updated, as usual, the list of Atmos titles on this site.
The pace of Dolby Atmos releases continue to increase as Warner Home Video announces the Blu-ray release of The Gallows on October 13th with a Dolby Atmos soundtrack. This will become the first horror movie available in the home theater with an object-based sountrack.
Sony Pictures just announced two more titles in their new Supreme Cinema Series, both from French director Luc Besson. The Fifth Element and Léon The Professional will both be released with a 1080P image from a new 4K remaster and will feature a newly mixed Dolby Atmos soundtrack. They will be available on October 27th.
This is great news for Dolby Atmos home theater owners as we can clearly sense the pace of releases increasing. This is of course helped by the release of those first catalog titles in the format.
Please note that seeing that a 4K remaster has been done for both it would not be surprising to quickly see those titles on UHD Blu-ray when it launches later this year.
Sony Pictures just announced their new high quality classic films series on Blu-ray called the Supreme Cinema Series. The first film to be released in this line will be the 1993 movie Bram Stoker’s Dracula from director Francis Ford Coppola.

It’s the first time that a catalog movie see a release with Dolby Atmos, one more proof of the growing strength of the format.
The movie will be released on October 6th. As usual, I updated the list of movies in Dolby Atmos on the site.
The release pace of Dolby Atmos movies on Blu-ray is accelerating in the last weeks, now it’s confirmed that the hottest title of the summer, Mad Max: Fury Road will be launched on Blu-ray with Dolby Atmos on September 1st. It will be available in both 2D and 3D editions.
Warner Brothers just announced that San Andreas, featuring Dwayne Johnson, will feature a Dolby Atmos soundtrack on Blu-ray when it is released on October 20th.
If you were looking for more content to watch in your shiny new Dolby Atmos receiver, look no more. HBO just announced that the first four seasons of the show will be released again on Blu-ray with a Dolby Atmos soundtrack.
The first two seasons will be available on November 3 while the other two seasons release date will be confirmed soon.
Now that’s a lot more hours of content to watch, which is refreshing during the drought of announcements we are going through right now.
