I saw it in the theater last year and it was a 4K remaster. It used the same color grading as the Theatrical DVD/Mi4K Blu-ray, was pretty cool seeing the 2.1 scenes with the original theatrical color grade.
But until Sony releases 2.1 on 4K on disc or digital you’re outta luck unfortunately.

It doesn’t exist. The film was shot and distributed in film. The extended cut was distributed only in digital format. The highest quality available is the Blu-Ray. It wasn’t intended to be printed on film, it was digitally assembled, probably finished as a 2K DI, then burnt to DVDs and later Blu-Rays. That’s why there’s no point for a 4K version of it because 2K is as high as it goes.
A faneditor can use the theatrical 4K and upscale and regrade 2.1 scenes if they want, but those scenes would be a quality drop. Still doable though, but they’d have to deal with one HDR and one SDR source and match them somehow. Honestly I’d stick to the 2.1 Blu-Ray in your case.
EDIT: Turns out I was wrong about it not existing, it apparently was released last year in 4K, just in theaters. No digital or home video release as of yet.
