Fathom Announces Screenings for Labyrinth 40th Anniversary

Labyrinth
Fathom Entertainment, the leading specialty distributor of content to theatrical partners worldwide, 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 (David 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.

“The magical combination of Jim Henson, George Lucas, David Bowie, Jennifer Connelly and hundreds of extraordinary creatures and puppets from Jim Henson’s Creature Shop made Labyrinth a landmark fantasy classic, one that is beloved by Fathom Entertainment audiences over the years,” said Ray Nutt, Chief Executive Officer, Fathom Entertainment. “We are honored to bring this 1986 epic back to theatres from Sony Pictures for its 40th anniversary in this special presentation and provide a brilliant night at the movies for audiences of all ages.”

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 celebrate its decades-long legacy of creating productions and characters that are beloved around the world.
