No it's not
Arrow 4K scan remaster Transfer is available only with the UK Arrow Video release
USA Steelbook Disc 1 is same as Image Entertainment previous anchor bay transfer 2008/2011

Disc 2 extras has most that was on Arrow release.
If you want new 4K Scan remaster of the film you need to purchase Arrow Video Blu-ray
