Original audio tracks (English) for movies in Europe (Germany) - are they Dolby 5.1?

This is probably a long shot to try to get an answer here, but I don't know how to find out if movies for the German market have original English audio tracks with all bells and whistles or are they just normal stereo tracks?

Unfortunately, I didn't manage to find this information anywhere. All movies descriptions are just showing that primary language is German with AAC, Dolby Atmos, Dolby 5.1 and so on...but then under additional languages English is listed and it only says "Audio".

Does anyone know if English audio tracks come with these technologies as well?

Often only the primary audio track has all the bells and whistles, but sometimes a secondary audio track can be Dolby 5.1 as well. I guess it depends on the specific title, and what the studio was willing to upload to the iTunes Store.

Thank you for your response. I decided to try my luck and purchased a few titles. It seems like all of them have Dolby 5.1 English tracks. Wish there's clear info on these though (like on Netflix for example).
