TWO WORLDS. ONE WAR. THE ULTIMATE BATTLE BEGINS ON DVD JULY 31st

Behind-the-Scenes Featurette, Director Audio Commentary and More!

CENTURY CITY, Calif. Savage swordsmen bent on death and destruction clash with the iron-willed protectors of a new world in Pathfinder, the heroic action-adventure filled with intense battle scenes and breathless, primal violence. Debuting on DVD July 31st from Fox Home Entertainment, the mythic clash will be available in its theatrical R-rated version and in an unflinching and brutal two-disc unrated extended edition, packed with extreme battle footage too intense for theaters!

Shrouded in the mists of legend of a time when Vikings tried to conquer North America, Pathfinder tells the story of a young Norse boy left behind after his clan shipwrecks on the Eastern shores. Despite his lineage, the boy is raised by the very Indians his kinsmen set out to destroy. Now, as the Vikings return to stage another barbaric raid, the 25-year-old Norse warrior (Karl Urban Lord Of The Rings, The Chronicles Of Riddick), facing a personal war between those who sired him and those who raised him, the reluctant hero takes up arms against the war-mongering barbarian hordes, leaving a trail of vengeful devastation in his wake. Equal parts Conan The Barbarian and Tarzan Of The Apes Pathfinder is stylishly directed by Marcus Nispel (2003’s graphic remake of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre) from a script by Laeta Kalogridis (Night Watch), and features a powerful supporting cast that includes the beautiful Moon Bloodgood (Eight Below), Russell Means (Last Of The Mohicans) and perennial film villain Clancy Brown (Highlander, “Carnivale”) as the leader of the invading Norse warriors.

Both the unrated and rated versions of the DVD include director audio commentary as well as eight deleted scenes, plus the action-packed unrated DVD additionally includes five behind-the-scenes featurettes, making-of segment with the director, special look at Brown’s portray of the Viking leader and more.
