Decal Releasing, in association with Neon, has just issued a Blu-ray release of Steven Soderbergh’s (Contagion) 2025 dark comedy-drama The Christophers starring Ian McKellen (Lord of the Rings trilogy), James Corden (Into the Woods), Jessica Gunning, and Michaela Coel.

In the film, Julian Sklar (McKellen) was once a star of London’s 1960’s and 70’s pop art explosion, but he hasn’t painted in decades and has been broke for years. His two estranged children (Corden, Gunning), desperate for an inheritance, hire Lori, an art restorer and former forger (Coel), to pose as a prospective assistant in order to access 8 unfinished canvases Julian has buried deep in storage. Her plan is to complete them, then return them to storage, where they are to be “discovered” upon Julian’s death.

Bonus features:

  • Conversation with screenwriter Ed Solomon and Charlie Kaufman
  • Theatrical trailer
