The sweeping historical adventure Ben Hur debuts on DVD January 30 from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment. Directed by Emmy® Award winner Steve Shill (TV’s “Dexter”) and written by Alan Sharp, this is an epic re-imagining of one of the greatest stories ever told, based on the novel by Lew Wallace.
In this new version of the colossal classic, Ben Hur delivers more
action, passion and revenge than ever before. The gripping story follows
two friends who become bitter enemies and the historic events of the
time as told through the eyes of Judah Ben-Hur. Born a wealthy Jewish
merchant's son, he is destined to live many lives: a powerful
businessman, a dutiful slave, a fierce gladiator, a Roman nobleman, and
finally... a conquering hero. This extraordinary adventure-filled saga
is the historic epic for a new generation.
