Celebrate 100 years of The Gold Rush – watch the official trailer:
To mark the 100th anniversary of The Gold Rush, the newly restored 4K version of Charlie Chaplin’s silent classic will be released in cinemas worldwide on June 26, 2025 — exactly a century after its original premiere at the Egyptian Theatre in Los Angeles.
Following its prestigious opening at Cannes Classics 2025, the film has already been confirmed for over 500 screenings in 70 countries, coordinated by mk2 films with the support of the Chaplin Office.
Among the many international highlights of the centenary celebrations is a special open-air screening in Piazza Maggiore, Bologna, with live accompaniment by the Orchestra of the Teatro Comunale di Bologna, conducted by Timothy Brock, during this year’s Il Cinema Ritrovato Festival.
The new 4K restoration, overseen by Cineteca di Bologna and L’Immagine Ritrovata, was carried out with the support of mk2 Films and Roy Export S.A.S. It will also be the subject of a dedicated panel at Il Cinema Ritrovato: Restorations Always in Progress: Gold Rush 1925, The Full Frame Chimera with Cecilia Cenciarelli (Cineteca di Bologna), Arnold Lozano (Director of Roy Export S.A.S.), Madeleine Lourenço and Frédérique Rouault (mk2 Films), and Elena Tammaccaro (L’Immagine Ritrovata)
