'Grease' Is Coming Back To Theaters To Honor Late Actor Olivia Newton-John

Inform me about it, stud.

The long-lasting ’70s film “Grease” is making a return to the large display this weekend after star Olivia Newton-John’s demise earlier this month, Consequence reported.

AMC Theatres will host screenings at 135 of its areas for a lowered charge of $5. A portion of ticket gross sales will go towards breast most cancers analysis, firm CEO Adam Aron tweeted.

Newton-John, who performed Sandy alongside John Travolta’s character Danny, died on August 8 from breast most cancers.

To honor the late Olivia Newton-John: a lot of our U.S. theatres this weekend will present her basic 1978 hit film Grease, once more on the large display. An affordable $5 admission worth, and thru our charity AMC Cares we are going to donate $1 per offered ticket to breast most cancers analysis. pic.twitter.com/MQc28RwOPA

The 1978 basic was as soon as the highest-grossing musical movie of all-time, eclipsing a report held by “The Sound of Music.” The film’s report was trumped after the discharge of “Les Misérables” in 2012.

In 2020, the Library of Congress introduced “Grease” can be added to the Nationwide Movie Registry.

The movie’s success led to its sequel, “Grease 2,” starring actors Maxwell Caulfield and Michelle Pfeiffer.

And there’s extra “Grease” to return: A sequence primarily based on the film known as “Grease: Rise of the Pink Girls” together with a prequel known as “Summer season Lovin’” are reportedly in manufacturing for streaming service Paramount+.
