A TV series that’s also released as a movie first - How to edit?

This documentary will be released both as a series (4 episodes X 45 minutes) and as a shorter theatrical movie cut (104 minutes): https://www.imdb.com/title/tt35678792/ Both will apparently share the same title. I can’t figure out how to add the theatrical release version. The documentary only shows up as a TV series with empty episodes on IMDB, see link above. The theatrical version was released today (March 27, 2025) in Switzerland, the longer TV series will follow later: https://outnow.ch/Movies/2025/GameOver-DerFallDerCreditSuisse/ https://www.swissfilms.ch/en/movie/game-over-der-fall-der-credit-suisse-serie/fa7ddbf5a8a4418492f342b2b872d9d3 People for example can’t leave IMDB user reviews for the already released theatrical version under the current entry. I also couldn’t add the release date for the theatrical version since it only shows up as a TV series. PS: Thanks to any IMDB moderators who can edit this more easily themselves/directly.

Hi helloamazon- If the film is still not added to the site, you are welcome to submit it through our online Update form for 'New title submissions.' For further detailed information and instructions on how to add new titles, I encourage you to review our following Help Guide: https://help.imdb.com/article/contribution/titles/adding-a-new-title/GNXTSSVTJTFCRZGN?ref_=helpart_nav_1#howto Cheers!

Just to make sure I got this right: Your advice is to set up a separate, second IMDB entry for the theatrical release version?

@helloamazon- Yes, once the new title is submitted for review. It can then also be later connected to the TV series. Further information can be found here as well: https://help.imdb.com/article/contribution/titles/movie-connections/GNUNL9W2FTZDGF4Y?ref_=helpsrall#

Thanks, I just submitted it! Please note that the two titles are identical (series and movie).
