Prince in ‘Purple Rain’ (Everett)

By Variety Staff

The movie that catapulted Prince to stardom is rolling back into U.S. theaters this weekend.

Purple Rain, starring the late pop star, was first released in 1984 and earned Prince an Academy Award for Best Original Song Score. The accompanying album also produced two no. 1 singles –“When Doves Cry” and “Let’s Go Crazy–and went platinum 13 times over.

AMC, the nation’s largest theater chain, is teaming with Warner Bros. to screen Purple Rain in 87 AMC locations this Saturday, April 22, through Thursday, April 27. Carmike Theaters will also screen the cult favorite in 80 theaters.

Prince, 57, was found dead at his Paisley Park residence on Thursday. An autopsy was performed Friday to determine the exact cause of death.
