Universal Home Entertainment just included Unbroken in its release line-up, bring the epic drama, directed and produced by Angelina Jolie, to Blu-Ray Disc and DVD in late March.

”Unbroken” follows the incredible life of Olympian and war hero Louis “Louie” Zamperini (Jack O’Connell) who, along with two other crewmen, survived on a raft for 47 days after a near-fatal plane crash in WWII – only to be caught by the Japanese navy and sent to a prisoner-of-war camp. Adapted from Laura Hillenbrand’s (Seabiscuit: An American Legend) enormously popular book, it’s the inspiring true story about the resilient power of the human spirit.

The DVD version will be a straight-forward affair, offering the film, supplemented with the Featurette ”The Real Louis Zamperini”.

The Blu-Ray version is much more impressive by comparison, offering up a 1080p high definition transfer with a Dolby Digital TrueHD Atmos audio track.

In addition the Blu-Ray version will also contain a number of additional Featurettes, such as ”Inside Unbroken: Fifty Years in the Making,” “Inside Unbroken: The Fight of a Storyteller – Director Angelina Jolie,” “Inside Unbroken: The Hardiest Generation,” “The Real Louis Zamperini,” “Cast and Crew Concert Featuring Miyavi,” “Prison Camp Theater: Cinderella” along with ”Louis’ Path to Forgiveness”.
