This fall, the Sam Raimi Spider-Man trilogy is coming back to theaters, and they won’t be alone. In the weeks and months ahead, fellow re-releases will include Tim Burton’s Batman duology and 1995’s Casper.
In the former’s case, both 1989’s Batman and 1992’s Batman Returns will be a special, one-night event on August 25. Over 160 Dolby Cinema at AMC Theaters locations will play the two movies, and it looks like AMC’s putting enough enough distance between them for you to watch them in one go. At the time of its release, Returns was the first feature film to ever be released in Dolby Digital, which began what we now know as surround sound. This’ll be the first time either movie has been presented in Dolby Vision or Atmos. Tickets for the two movies can be purchased here and here.
Meanwhile, Casper returns to the big screen for its 30th anniversary this past May. The horror-comedy will play in theaters from October 3 to Halloween, a perfect kid-focused horror movie for the season. When it came out, it was the first movie to ever feature a fully CGI character in the lead role. You can grab advance tickets here.
So for the re-release heads, that’s Batman and its sequel on August 25, the Spider-Man movies on September 26, and Casper on October 3. And if that weren’t enough, Disney’s already locked down the original Star Wars to come back to theaters for its 50th anniversary on April 30, 2027.
