Extended editions of The Hobbit trilogy heading to the big screen in October

August 4, 2015 by Gary Collinson

If you’ve been itching to relive Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit trilogy on the big screen – and in their extended editions, no less – then you’re in luck, as The One Ring is reporting that An Unexpected Journey, The Desolation of Smaug and The Battle of the Five Armies will be receiving a theatrical run over three consecutive nights in October.

Fathom Events and Warner Bros. are partnering to present the extended editions of all three Hobbit movies. Shown over three nights, the epic Peter Jackson trilogy will be the first time the extended editions have ever been released in theatres. Also included will be an exclusive introduction by director Peter Jackson. First night showing starts Monday, October 5th, 2015 at 7:30pm local. Tickets will be regular admission prices for each movie.

As yet, there’s no word on whether we’ll get to see the extended editions in cinemas here in the UK, but we’ll keep you posted.
