“In May, Tomorrowland director Brad Bird let slip that The Iron Giant, his 1999 box-office dud turned beloved animated classic, might find its way back into theaters for a special re-release. “I think something will happen fairly soon,” Bird told Collider. “They know that people have a fondness for it. … I would love to see Iron Giant get back into theaters even if only for a week.”

It won’t be a week’s run, but pencil Sept. 30 on your calendar. Warner Bros. and Fathom Events are putting a remastered “Signature Edition” version of The Iron Giant in theaters for a very limited engagement. The special-event screening will take place at 7:00 p.m. on Sept. 30, with an encore showing on Oct. 4 at 12 p.m. in participating theaters around the country. The new remastered cut will include two all-new scenes.”
