We’re not getting a new James Bond movie for a while, but at least we can see an old one in theaters pretty soon. On Friday, October 3, GoldenEye will play in select theaters worldwide, and exclusively at Alama Drafthouse for U.S. audiences.
The re-release serves two purposes: first, October 5 is James Bond Day—Dr. No, the first film in the series premiered on that day in 1962—and GoldenEye itself will turn 30 years old in November. (Beyond the deisgnated holiday, its October date may also be due to November having a stacked movie calendar.) The 1995 film was several firsts for the franchise: it’s Pierce Brosnan’s first Bond movie, the debut of Judi Dench as M, and the first entry to use CGI and not borrow story elements from Ian Fleming’s novels.
To celebrate James Bond Day, GOLDENEYE returns to the big screen worldwide from Friday 3 October in 4K, marking thirty years since the film’s release. More information and tickets on https://t.co/1JH3zpzGuv. pic.twitter.com/TeXW7MccS5

GoldenEye got a strong reception at release and made $356.4 million, surpassing the 1980s James Bond films and becoming the fourth highest-grossing movie of 1995. It’s also considered one of the best Bond movies and became the basis for the hit Nintendo 64 game from Rare in 1997, which showed first-person shooters were viable for consoles. In 2022, the game was re-released on Xbox Series X|S (via Game Pass) and Nintendo Switch (via Nintendo Classsics).
While U.S. viewers can see GoldenEye at Drafthouse, we’ve linked the specific theaters for the UK (and two more here and here), Poland, Sweden, and Mexico.
