"For the theaters, for New Line [Cinema], for the fans to want to pay homage to the movie in this way is cool," he said. "It lets you know how much people appreciate it and how much fun it is … and it lets you know that Friday is now a part of the American fabric."


The one-night-only rerelease will feature a special director's cut of Friday and will also include "Friday Straight Up," a 24-minute featurette with behind-the-scenes footage from the making of the movie and interviews with the cast.
