Overview
- A newly restored 4K print of Kathryn Bigelow’s Point Break will play in participating U.S. theaters on August 16 and August 19, 2026, and tickets are available now online and at box offices.
- Resurgence Media Group, Saga Arts and Fathom Entertainment are presenting the screenings, with surfing veteran Matt Archbold — Patrick Swayze’s former surf double — giving introductions at select showings.
- The 1991 film stars Patrick Swayze and Keanu Reeves and follows FBI agent Johnny Utah as he goes undercover with a surfer crew called the Ex-Presidents who may be linked to daytime bank robberies.
- The reissue follows a pattern of franchise activity that includes a poorly received 2015 remake and a 2023 4K Collector’s Edition, and it arrives while a Point Break TV series set 35 years after the original remains in development at AMC.
- Distributors are using high-quality restoration and event programming to re-engage longtime fans, a strategy that could drive ticket sales and renew interest in additional Point Break projects.
