Universal announces Arnie's 'Sabotage' release dates

Arnold Schwarzenegger (Expendables 2, the Terminator series) stars as the leader of an elite DEA task force whose members are targeted by a mysterious killer in Sabotage, an edge-of-your-seat action thriller coming to Blu-ray™ Combo Pack, including Blu-ray™, DVD and Digital HD with UltraViolet™ and On Demand on July 22, 2014 from Universal Studios Home Entertainment. Sabotage will also be available on Digital HD on July 8, 2014.

Directed by David Ayer, the acclaimed director of End of Watch and screenwriter of Training Day, Sabotage centers on DEA agent Breacher Wharton (Schwarzenegger), who leads a daring raid on a heavily-armed drug cartel safe house. The raid seems to go off seamlessly, but when the agents involved start turning up dead, everyone is a suspect—even members of their own squad. An explosive tale of loyalty and betrayal that Mark DeCarlo of ABC-TV's Windy City LIVE calls "a tense, action-packed thrill ride," Chris Parente of FOX-TV hailed the film "a non-stop adrenaline rush!"

Schwarzenegger is joined by an impressive supporting cast including Sam Worthington (Avatar, Clash of the Titans), Olivia Williams (Hanna, "Dollhouse"), Terrence Howard (Iron Man, Red Tails), Joe Manganiello (Magic Mike, "How I Met Your Mother"), Josh Holloway ("Lost") and Mireille Enos (World War Z, "The Killing").

The Blu-ray™ Combo Pack includes a Blu-ray™, DVD and Digital HD with UltraViolet™.

SYNOPSIS

Arnold Schwarzenegger stars in the pulse-pounding action film Sabotage, from the director of End of Watch and the writer of Training Day. When DEA task force leader Breacher Wharton (Schwarzenegger) storms a heavily armed cartel safe house, rogue members of his team use it as a cover to steal $10 million in cash. But just when they think their secret is safe, agents are killed off one-by-one, and everyone is a suspect, including the squad itself. Co-starring Sam Worthington, Olivia Williams, Terrence Howard, Joe Manganiello, Josh Holloway and Mireille Enos, Sabotage is an explosive tale of betrayal and trust that critics call "a tense, action-packed thrill ride!" (Mark DeCarlo, ABC-TV's Windy City LIVE).
