So here’s the official Disney press release with all the details...

SHARPER THAN EVER: EDWARD SCISSORHANDS CELEBRATES 35 YEARS WITH 4K ULTRA HD DEBUT THIS HALLOWEEN!

Celebrate Tim Burton’s Beloved Modern Fable With Its October 28 Return in a Stunning New Restoration on Digital and Blu-ray Disc

BURBANK, CA (September 30, 2025) – Tim Burton’s heartwarming story of the innocently endearing character who cannot touch others will charm audiences new and old when Edward Scissorhands makes its debut on digital retailers (Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV and Fandango at Home) and on 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray Disc on October 28 just in time for the Halloween season. [Read on here...]

Lovingly restored for its 35th anniversary, every sparkle of Edward’s eyes and every glint of his blades now shines with breathtaking clarity, enhanced by Dolby Vision and accompanied by cutting-edge Dolby Atmos sound. First released in 1990, the film has carved a permanent place in the hearts of fans of Burton, Johnny Depp, Winona Ryder and Danny Elfman for decades, and is now presented more vividly than ever before.

Edward Scissorhands remains one of cinema’s most enchanting modern fables. A kindly inventor once created a gentle young man named Edward, but passed away before he could finish his work—leaving Edward with only metal shears for hands. Lonely until welcomed into a pastel suburbia by a kind Avon lady, Edward’s story still resonates today with its timeless message: to embrace what makes us different, and to discover that wonder often lies just beyond the unknown.

For collectors and fans, a hauntingly beautiful Steelbook encases the classic film. The exterior features striking artwork, with Kim’s face reflected in shattered glass on the front and a detailed close-up of Edward’s compelling gaze on the back. The interior reveals a captivating illustration of a gothic Edward in all his leathered, studded and bladed glory. This limited-edition set includes both the 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray discs, making it a must-have for any enthusiast.

Here’s what the packaging looks like...
