Blu-ray regions are different from DVD regions in that they are A, B, C etc instead of 1, 2, 3 etc ... but we are still a different region to the US.
It is doubtful(*) that your blu-ray player is multiregion blu-ray even if it is multiregion DVD so unless you can confirm that the disk is not region locked then you do run the risk of not being able to play it.
I can't answer whether this disk is region free or not as I don't know so I would suggest doing some more research (via google etc) before buying anything other than a normal UK release.
(*) but not impossible ... I have a player that is multiregion blu-ray and DVD and it wasn't cheap as it had to be physicaly chipped to do it.
