Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure gets new 4K restoration release

July 7, 2020 by Gary Collinson

Before they Face the Music, Bill S. Preston, Esquire and Ted “Theodore” Logan are returning to the big screen this summer with a brand new 4K restoration of Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure, which is set to receive special screenings as part of the Luna Drive In Cinema this month ahead of a 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray and DVD release on August 10th.

Strange things are afoot at the Circle K in San Dimas… Ted “Theodore” Logan (Keanu Reeves) and Bill S. Preston, Esquire (Alex Winter), are in danger of flunking school most heinously if they fail their history exam, and if they do they’ll have to break up their totally bodacious band, WYLD STALLYNS. No way!

They meet Rufus (George Carlin) – an awesome dude in a phone booth that can travel through time, who informs them that the fate of the excellent future he comes from is in their hands and in the songs they will write together, so brace yourself amigos for a most unusual day! Bill & Ted crash from Ancient Greece to the Wild West, from 19th Century Europe to the distant future, meeting famous figures and medieval babes along the way. The boys bag a bevy of historical heavyweights from each stop to take back for their presentation, but will they make it back in time to save not only their grades, but the fate of the world? History’s about to be rewritten by two guys who can’t even spell. 

Bonus features on the home-entertainment release include:

  • Time Flies When You’re Having Fun! – A Look Back at a Most “Excellent Adventure”
  • Audio Commentary with Star Alex Winter and Producer Scott Kroopf
  • Audio Commentary with Writers Chris Matheson and Ed Solomon
  • Score! An Interview with Guitarist Steve Vai
  • The Original Bill & Ted
  • Air Guitar Tutorial with Bjorn Turoque
