Arrow Video Tabs Jan. 6 For The 4K Ultra HD Release Of Director Andrew Davis' Under Siege

@dvdblurayreport, Ralph Tribbey, DVD & Blu-ray Release Report
Arrow Video, with domestic sales and distribution expertise provided by MVD Entertainment Group, opens up its 2026 physical media release campaign on Jan. 6 with a new 4K restoration (from the original camera negative) of director Andrew Davis’ 1992 all-action terrorist thriller, Under Siege.
 
Steven Seagal absolutely nails the role of Casey Ryback, “ship’s cook” aboard the USS Missouri, which has been hijacked by terrorists William Strannix and Ernest Daumer (Tommy Lee Jones, Colm Meaney) — with the help of Commander Krill (Gary Busey) — during a fake birthday celebration for the ship’s captain.   The Missouri is to be decommissioned and only carries a skeleton crew, which is easily overwhelmed and imprisoned … those that resisted were killed!
 
Ryback teams up with the “entertainment,” Playboy Playmate Jordan Tate (played by real-life Playmate Erika Eleniak), and sets about to re-take control of the ship from Strannix and Krill, who are after the Missouri’s store of Tomahawk missiles.
 
Both 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray “Limited Editions” will be available on Jan. 6, 2026.  
 
Bonus goodies include a newly-prepared commentary with filmmaker Andrew Davis (Above the Law, The Fugitive, A Perfect Murder, etc.), who is joined by screenwriter J.F. Lawton (Pretty Woman, Under Siege 2: Dark Territory).
 
There are also four new featurettes — “I’m on a Boat (with a Bomb),” “One of the Guys,” “A Tight Ship” and “The Introvision Files.”
