HD-DVD-supporting studios will start including uniquely high-def content on discs released this autumn.

Paramount’s headlining HD-DVD will be “Mission Impossible: III” which will feature bonus content originally shot in high-def, as well as picture-in-picture commentary by director J. J. Abrams.

Warner, Paramount, and Universal unveiled the exclusive high-def content at the Entertainment Media Expo in Universal City, California.

Universal showed off bonus material for “The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift”; viewers will be able to interact with cars on screen as well as calculate the cost of the damage done to the cars as they crash.

Warner’s HD-DVD offering for the fall will include “Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines”, “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” and “Poseidon.”
