The Starship Enterprise flies back to the big screen this September as Fathom Events and Paramount Pictures bring 1982’s milestone STAR TREK II: THE WRATH OF KHAN back to cinemas nationwide for two days only.
STAR TREK II: THE WRATH OF KHAN will beam back to more than 600 theaters throughout the U.S. on Sunday, September 10, and Wednesday, September 13, at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. (local time) each day. The special presentation of director Nicholas Meyer‘s classic science-fiction adventure — which is celebrating its 35th anniversary — will be accompanied by a newly produced, in-depth interview with William Shatner that will play before each screening. Tickets are available now at www.FathomEvents.com.
“Making Star Trek II seems like only yesterday,” Shatner said. “Even back then, we knew we were creating something really special, and to have The Wrath of Khan back on the big screen 35 years later is a wonderful testament both to the film itself and to the incredible passion of Star Trek fans.”
Director Nicholas Meyer’s “Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan,” was a box-office hit upon its release – the sixth highest-grossing film of 1982 – and continues to be revered and quoted by fans. The film, a continuation of the original Star Trek series episode “The Space Seed,” finds longtime Starfleet nemesis Khan Noonien Singh (Ricardo Montalban) alive and well, marooned on a seemingly lifeless planet. When he’s discovered by Chekov (Walter Koenig), Khan will stop at nothing to exact revenge against the man who exiled him on the barren world: Admiral James T. Kirk.
With an cast that includes William Shatner, Leonard Nimoy, DeForest Kelley, Walter Koenig, George Takei, Nichelle Nichols, James Doohan, Kirstie Alley, Paul Winfield, Bibi Besch, and Merritt Butrick — andan indelible performance by Ricardo Montalban as Khan —STAR TREK II: THE WRATH OF KHANwill be presented in a digitally remastered director’s cut. Live long and prosper,
