The quintessential NASCAR movie, Talladega Nights: The Ballad Of Ricky Bobby is heading to 4K UHD Steelbook later this August. The film is celebrating its 20th anniversary with a special edition 4K release. If you’ve never seen Talladega Nights, here’s a synopsis.
The fastest man on four wheels, Ricky Bobby (WILL FERRELL) is one of the greatest drivers in NASCAR history. A big, hairy American winning machine, Ricky has everything a dimwitted daredevil could want, a luxurious mansion, a smokin’ hot wife (LESLIE BIBB) and all the fast food he can eat. But Ricky’s turbo-charged lifestyle hits an unexpected speed bump when he’s bested by flamboyant Euro-idiot Jean Girard (SACHA BARON COHEN) and reduced to a fear-ridden wreck. Losing his wife and job to best bud and fellow fool, Cal Naughton, Jr. (JOHN C. REILLY), Ricky must kick some serious asphalt if he’s to get his career back on the track, beat Girard and reclaim his fame and fortune. ‘Cause as Ricky Bobby always says, IF YOU AIN’T FIRST, YOU’RE LAST!
Talladega Nights was directed by Adam McKay and written by McKay and Will Ferrell. It stars Will Ferrell, John C. Reilly, Sacha Baron Cohen, Gary Cole, and Michael Clarke Duncan.
