Labyrinth Will Return to Theaters This Spring

Jim Henson’s 1986 classic Labyrinth will return to theaters for only three days this spring for a nationwide fan celebration of the 32-year old film. The screenings will take place in late April and early May, according to EW. Fathom Events will present the film in association with Sony Pictures and the Jim Henson Company.

“Labyrinth is one of the most frequently requested titles, and has an enormous fan base,” said Tom Lucas, Fathom Events’ vice president of studio relations, in a statement. “It’s a film with great appeal to a huge audience — and also a cinematic experience that can be enjoyed over and over, always revealing more surprises. We couldn’t be happier to share it with moviegoers again.”

The cult classic stars Academy Award winner Jennifer Connelly in one of her earliest roles; she was around the age of 16 when the film came out. Connelly won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress for her breathtaking performance in A Beautiful Mind, where she played the strong wife of mentally ill mathematical genius John Nash (Russell Crowe). She’s known for playing very dark characters who often go through some form of transformation, sometimes for the worst, in such films as Requiem for a Dream, House of Sand and Fog, and the recent American Pastoral.
