The home media release history of Apocalypse Now is summarized in the following table. Although the dates are for the American publication of the home media editions, releases by publishers in other territories are identical in content and format. Despite filming Apocalypse Now in 2.39:1, the film's cinematographer Vittorio Storraro periodically approved home media releases in his preferred aspect ratio, the 2.0:1 Univisium. This aggressive crop of the original 2.39:1 film negative has been done away with in all releases since Coppola's American Zoetrope reassigned home media rights to Lionsgate Home Entertainment in 2010.[129]
