The film returns to theaters for a limited time
Fathom Entertainment is partnering with The Jim Henson Company to bring Jim Henson’s 1986 music-filled fantasy adventure Labyrinth, from Sony Pictures and starring David Bowie and Jennifer Connelly, back to theatres and remastered in 4K for its 40th anniversary on January 8-11.
Labyrinth: 40th Anniversary includes a special featurette celebrating the fans of Labyrinth, filmed on location at the UK’s recent Labyrinth Experience & Masked Ball, presented by Thames Con in association with The Jim Henson Company.
Labyrinth stars 14-year-old Jennifer Connelly in her breakthrough role as Sarah, a teen searching through a magical maze to rescue her baby stepbrother from The Goblin King (Bowie). Labyrinth was directed by Jim Henson and executive produced by visionary George Lucas, with the story by Henson and Dennis Lee, and the screenplay by Terry Jones (Monty Python’s Flying Circus). Labyrinth was scored by Trevor Jones, with several songs of original music contributed to the film and performed by David Bowie.
Labyrinth also features breathtaking production design, extraordinary practical effects, and the magical artistry of hundreds of Henson puppets and creatures brought to life by Jim Henson’s Creature Shop.
Conceptual design in Labyrinth was by Brian Froud, with creatures performed by David Goelz, Steve Whitmire, Karen Prell, Ron Mueck, Kevin Clash, Shari Weiser, Anthony Asbury, Brian Henson, and Frank Oz.
Since 1955, The Jim Henson Company has been an established leader in innovative and imaginative entertainment for audiences of all ages. In 2025, the Company celebrated its 70th anniversary with multiple activations and events that celebrated its decades-long legacy of creating productions and characters that are beloved around the world.
Tickets for Labyrinth: 40th Anniversary are now on sale at Fathom Entertainment and participating theatre box offices.
