New York, N.Y., June 23, 2016 – “Until justice is blind to color, until education is unaware of race, untilopportunity is unconcerned with the color of men’s skins, emancipation will be a proclamation, but not a fact.” — Lyndon B. Johnson.  HBO Home Entertainment proudly presents the July 11th Digital HD andSeptember 6th DVD with Digital HD and Blu-ray with Digital HD release of the critically acclaimed All the Way.  Following its critically acclaimed, award-winning Broadway run, All the Way (starring four-time Emmy® winner Bryan Cranston who reprises his Tony Award-winning role, is a riveting behind-the-scenes look at President Lyndon B.

Hailed as “dramatically dazzling” (Baltimore Sun) and “powerful” (Chicago Sun-Times), All the Wayfollows LBJ during his early administration, as he stakes his presidency on what would be a historic,unprecedented Civil Rights Act. Johnson finds himself caught between the moral imperative of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and the expectations of the southern Democratic Party leaders who brought Johnson to power.
