We’ve got a couple of things we’re tracking here at The Bits today, news wise...

First, it looks like Paramount has listed Scream VI for pre-order on 4K Ultra HD, 4K Steelbook, and Blu-ray on Amazon. We haven’t got the street date (which is still TBA), but we do have pre-order links and artwork below the break.

While we’re talking Paramount, F. Gary Gray’s The Italian Job (2003) and Antoine Fuqua’s Shooter (2007) are now available for pre-order in 4K UHD on Amazon with a street date of 5/16. The former is new to the format, while the latter was originally released as a 4K Steelbook edition last year—this is the regular Amaray version. Click on the title links for each to visit their respective Amazon pages.

Paramount and CBS have also just listed Star Trek: Lower Decks – Season 3 for release on Blu-ray on 4/25, as expected. As some of you may recall, the DVD was listed first by itself and now the Blu-ray SKU has been added to online pre-orders on Amazon. You can see the BD artwork below.

Also now available for pre-order from Warner Bros. (street date TBA) is Michael B. Jordan’s Creed III on Blu-ray and 4K Ultra HD (click here and here). [Read on here...]

We’re finishing the week off with a trio of new disc reviews here at The Bits...

And Stephen and yours truly have given Ryan Coogler’s latest MCU installment Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (2022) a spin on 4K Ultra HD from Marvel and Disney.

In terms of catalog release news today, our retail sources are reporting that Paramount will be bringing F. Gary Gray’s The Italian Job (2003) remake and Antoine Fuqua’s Shooter (2007)—a wide-release Amaray, as the film was released as a 4K Steelbook last year—to Ultra HD likely on 5/16.
