LOS ANGELES, March 13 (UPI) -- The film "Avatar" may be re-released in U.S. theaters in a new version containing scenes previously cut from the action hit, The Hollywood Reporter says.
The New York Daily News said Friday, citing the Reporter story, that 20th Century Fox is considering re-releasing the 2009 blockbuster hit from director James Cameron in 3-D theaters nationwide.
The potential move by Fox comes after theaters across the country limited showings of "Avatar" on digital and IMAX screens due to the March 5 release of "Alice in Wonderland."
"Avatar," which stars Sam Worthington and Zoe Saldana, is already the highest-grossing film of all time with $712.5 million in domestic earnings to date.
The Daily News said more than 80 percent of the film's domestic earnings have come from showings at 3-D theaters.
The new version of "Avatar" would include as much as 12 additional minutes of film time that was cut from the film's original version.
