Paramount has announced a Star Trek: The Motion Pictures DVD set that will include all the special editions of the feature films, expanding on the 2003 set that included the single-disc releases of all the movies.
The Digital Bits reports that Paramount has also forwarded some details on the upcoming Star Trek: Nemesis collector's edition, a two-disc set scheduled for release on October 4th along with the complete motion pictures collection. Though the company has not yet unveiled the extras, it is assumed that this set will include deleted scenes, interviews and behind-the-scenes material like the collector's edition of Star Trek: Insurrection.
In addition, information is now available on the extras to be included in all the remaining box sets of Star Trek: Enterprise. Each set includes audio commentary by writers and producers as well as new interviews with cast members, plus deleted scenes and outtakes as well as photo galleries.
Season two, which will be released in less than two weeks, contains audio commentary by writer/producers Mike Sussman and Phyllis Strong on "Dead Stop" and "Regeneration", text commentary by Michael and Denise Okuda on "Stigma" and "First Flight", a new interview with Jolene Blalock, a featurette on director LeVar Burton plus outtakes, deleted scenes and easter eggs.
Season three, due in stores on September 27th, will include audio commentary by assistant director Mike DeMeritt on "North Star", audio commentary by writer Manny Coto on "Similitude", three text commentaries by the Okudas and several featurettes on the Xindi arc. The cast profile on this set is Connor Trinneer, the director profiled is Roxann Dawson and there will be additional outtakes, deleted scenes and easter eggs.
The shortened fourth season is due to be released on DVD in November with the "In a Mirror, Darkly" podcast commentaries by Sussman and Tim Gaskill, audio commentary from writers Garfield and Judith Reeves-Stevens and Gaskill on "Terra Prime", text commentaries by the Okudas, six behind-the-scenes featurettes including "That's a Wrap!" and other extras. Each of the Region 2 sets will include special features available as purchase promotions in the U.S.
The original announcement is summed up at The Digital Bits. The second and third seasons of Enterprise may be pre-ordered from Amazon.com, as may the Nemesis special edition.
