StarTrek II: The Wrath of Khan will return to theaters to celebrate its 40th anniversary
Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan helped revive the franchise after the first movie had a disappointing reception at the box office. Arguably, Star Trek II turned things around with an exciting story, a great villain, and one of the most memorable deaths in Star Trek history. Later this year, Star Trek II is heading back to theaters to celebrate its 40th anniversary, courtesy of Turner Classic Movies and Fathom Events.
Critics and fans widely regard The Wrath of Khan as the best Star Trek movie and one of the greatest sci-fi movies of all time, particularly praising William Shatner’s performance as Kirk and Ricardo Montalban as the Khan.
Star Trek II‘s rerelease will be held on Sunday, September 4; Monday, September 5; and Thursday, September 8. Additionally, the screening will feature Nicholas Meyer’s director’s cut.
