Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman star in Stanley Kubrick’s mesmeric masterpiece, Eyes Wide Shut. Now, it comes to 4K UHD in the UK for the first time.
Open your eyes. Controversial, influential, and unforgettable, the final film by the legendary film director Stanley Kubrick is Eyes Wide Shut. Starring A-list superstars Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman, the film is released by Warner Bros. Home Entertainment for the first time in the UK on 4K Ultra HD SteelBook on July 27, 2026.
Kubrick’s extraordinary, disturbing, and profound 1999 swansong is inspired by the book Traumnovelle by Arthur Schnitzler. It stars Tom Cruise (Top Gun) and Nicole Kidman (Oscar-winner for The Hours) as a married couple. They become entangled in an intricate web of jealousy and sexual obsession.
With a supporting cast including Sydney Pollack (Tootsie), Vinessa Shaw (3:10 to Yuma), and Rade Serbedgia (Batman Begins), and a remarkable, hypnotic score by Jocelyn Pook, the dreamlike visuals and sumptuous set pieces look absolutely marvelous in this new 4K UHD release, and Kubrick fans will be able to savor his breathtaking attention to detail like never before.
THE PREMISE
At a Christmas party hosted by wealthy, unconventional Victor Ziegler (Sydney Pollack), provocative advances and innocent flirtations arouse suspicion as high-society physician Dr. William Harford (Cruise) and his sexy wife, Alice (Kidman), watch each other from a distance. Alone later, this seemingly perfect couple confronts their intimate sexual fantasies, which don’t include each other.
Caught between reality and illusion, jealousy and obsession, William struggles with his inner urges. Will he act on his erotic fantasies or keep them hidden deep inside? Sometimes a man can see more clearly with his Eyes Wide Shut.
