Spanish distributor Manga Films has revealed that they will begin releasing titles in the Blu-ray format. The first titles to come from the distributor will be 'Mr. Brooks' and 'Rambo', both due to be released in July. No specs or extras have been announced at this time for either release, so Spanish Blu-ray fans will have to wait just a bit longer for those details.
Manga Films initially announced releases for HD DVD, but those releases were canceled last year. The company was contacted with regards to their future high definition plans, and they commented that they had no current plans to release any titles on HD DVD.
