WWE and The Austin Film Festival have announced that the world premiere of "Brothers of Destruction" will air during the festival's Closing Night slate of programming.

"Brothers of Destruction" will chronicle the legacy of WWE legends Kane and The Undertaker. The 60 minute film was directed by Kieran Bent, produced by Brian Decker, and executive produced by Ben Houser and Brian Pellegatto.

The synopsis for the film reads like this:

"Forever linked as two of sports entertainment's most enigmatic and popular Superstars, Undertaker and Kane shed their on-screen personas for a historic conversation at Austin's Zach Theatre as part of WWE's '30 Years of The Deadman' celebration commemorating Undertakers 30th anniversary in WWE. With more than three decades as one of the industry's biggest box office draws, The Undertaker's rise to stardom is forever connected to his mysterious counterpart from the dark side, Kane. Both in the ring and off screen, Mark Calaway and Glenn Jacobs developed a deep friendship revealed in this film. 'Brothers of Destruction,' the latest presentation from WWE Network Documentaries, brings the audience behind the curtain with untold stories and rare footage of this unbreakable bond."

"The Last Ride" aired earlier this year as a five-part series on the WWE Network. The DVD and Blu-ray releases will include bonus items, such as a mini comic book and artwork. There will be around 20 minutes of bonus footage included with the two-disc DVD set and single-disc Blu-ray. There will also be a bonus animated "Tales from The Dead Man" episode included with the DVD and Blu-ray, at least in the UK. It's also been revealed that UK fans will have access to a 30th Anniversary Collector's Edition Blu-ray, but there's no word yet on if that will be available to fans in the US. The Collector's Edition comes with bonus items as well.
