The film's US distributor Fox Searchlight has also acquired UK rights to the film and is planning a release in early July.
"We knew this was an amazing film from the moment we saw it," Fox Searchlight presidents Nancy Utley and Stephen Gilula said regarding the new acquisition.
The film's producer Bill Pohlad added: "Fox Searchlight has been an extraordinary partner distributing our film in the United States, so we're thrilled to have them release The Tree of Life in the United Kingdom, allowing international audiences to experience Terry's beautiful masterpiece."
The Tree of Life stars Brad Pitt and Sean Penn in a story exploring the troubled relationship between a father and his children.
The film launched at Cannes Film Festival this year to a polarised reception, and was later presented with the event's highest honour, the Palme d'Or.
The Tree of Life will now be released across the UK on July 8.
