Disney and Pixar will celebrate the 20th anniversary of the animated feature “Cars” with a re-release of the 2006 title in cinemas this September.

Pixar shared the announcement on social media yesterday, writing, “20 years ago today, a stop in Radiator Springs showed us that the journey matters as much as the finish line… Cars races back into theaters September. #Cars20″

That isn’t the only film getting a re-release soon. StudioCanal have announced they are re-releasing Michael Mann’s 1986 film “Manhunter,” a film adaptation of Thomas Harris’ “Red Dragon” novel, in U.S. cinemas next month.

Dubbed “Manhunter: The Final Cut,” the new 4K restoration will get a theatrical re-release on July 24th in the U.S. with the title set to debut at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures’ David Geffen Theater this week on Friday.

A theatrical push in the United Kingdom is also taking place on September 25th with a home entertainment version likely hitting sometime after that.

William Peterson stars in the film as FBI profiler Will Graham, Tom Noonan as serial killer Francis Dolarhyde/The Tooth Fairy, and Brian Cox as imprisoned cannibalistic psychiatrist Dr. Hannibal Lecktor.
