From Digital Bits:
"we're now hearing that Peter Jackson and Universal may be planning a King Kong: Extended Edition as well.
Arnaud Calistri, the editor of the French DVD news site DVDRama, e-mailed me yesterday to say that Universal France has just confirmed that a
deluxe King Kong "box set edition" is being prepared for DVD release in
November of this year, and that it will feature a new edit of the film itself.
France will also be getting the same two editions the studio just announced for release here in the States on 3/28, but not until August. We're working with our own sources to try and confirm this, but it definitely seems like a possibility given Jackson's track record with his Lord of the Rings extended DVDs."
