The 1989 version of “Batman” and the 1992 follow-up “Batman Returns” are hitting theaters again for one-night engagement on Aug. 25. They will be enhanced and remastered versions of the Tim Burton films which starred Michael Keaton, Jack Nicholson ...

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.
