Interstellar is heading back to theaters to celebrate 1.4 hours since its release

Interstellar is set to make a comeback by returning to the movie theaters in order to celebrate it being 1.4 hours since its first release.

Okay, that might be confusing to read and if you haven’t seen the film then you might need to catch up.

Don't worry, all will be explained.

The Christopher Nolan movie originally came out a decade ago in 2014 and featured a star-studded cast including Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Chastain, Matt Damon, Michael Caine and Timothée Chalamet.

The beloved flick follows the life of a farmer and ex-NASA astronaut, played by McConaughy, who is needed to pilot a spacecraft carrying a research team to another planet.

They plan to search for a new planet where humans will be able to move to in the future.

However, there is one thing that has always left viewers puzzled, and that’s the movie’s confusing time theory.

In Interstellar, a time theory is discussed known as “time dilation” after the astronauts pass through a wormhole and find a planet they decide to land on.

There, one hour passes by in the equivalent time of seven years passing by on Earth.

This is because the ocean planet orbits Gargantua – an absolute whopper of a black hole that exists in the unknown galaxy with a very, very strong gravitational pull.

So, let’s break that time theory down to make this whole thing a little clearer.

One year on Earth equals 8.5 minutes on the other planet, meaning that 85.7 minutes (1.4 hours) equates to 10 years.

So, the theory means that the movie came out only 1.4 hours ago and to celebrate a decade since Interstellar debuted, Nolan has confirmed it will be re-released in cinemas.

Empire magazine confirmed the sci-fi flick will return to cinemas on 27 September 2024. The re-release will be on digital screens as well as Nolan’s preferred format of being shown in 70mm IMAX prints.

And fans celebrated this on Instagram as they called it the “best movie of all time”, with one person writing: “I wish I could go back in time to watch it again for the first time and go, ‘What the f**k did I just see?!’”

One was a little disappointed as they put: “Damn I thought we was getting a sequel.”

As others couldn’t believe: “No way this is 10 years old now.” Well, nearly 1.4 hours old but still.
