As Pippin would say, ‘What is going on?!’ On Thursday we reported that Warner Bros. had stated, in a press release, that there would be an extended edition Blu-ray and DVD for The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey later in 2013. Now, Warner Bros. have issued another official statement:
‘In the recently distributed calendar included in the Warner Bros. 90th Anniversary press kit, there was an erroneous mention of an Extended Edition release for The Hobbit film. This product has not been confirmed yet and we apologize for any confusion.’
So it’s officially UNconfirmed. But that doesn’t mean it won’t happen. It’s just not confirmed as happening. Yet. Watch this space…
