Director James Cameron said:

“Audiences repeatedly told me they wanted more of Pandora and wished they could have stayed there longer,” he said. “So we're making that possible. ‘Avatar: Special Edition' will be exclusively in 3D and will have eight minutes of never before seen footage, including new creatures and action scenes. Whether you already love the movie, or you've never seen it, with this special edition, you'll be seeing it like never before.”

The studio said in a statement:

“Since – and largely as of result of – Avatar's release last December, the number of available digital 3D screens has exploded, and moviegoers who missed experiencing the film in 3D, as well as fans that want to return to Pandora again, will now have that opportunity.”

“It is especially gratifying, because not only has ‘Avatar' become one of the most beloved films in history, but after its initial theatrical release, we have been inundated with requests to re-release the film in theaters in 3D,”
