“We’re excited to bring Daft Punk’s iconic Interstella 5555, now fully remastered in stunning 4K, to cinemas for this one-night-only global event,” shared Marc Allenby, CEO of Trafalgar Releasing. “This is a rare opportunity to experience the film on the big screen, along with accompanying Daft Punk music videos, and we can’t wait to share it with audiences everywhere.”
To celebrate the film’s return to theatres, Daft Punk will be releasing a limited number of ‘Discovery: Interstella 5555 Edition’ albums containing the original Japanese edition artwork, stickers and a Daft Club card, which became collectors’ items around its original release.
The group have also launched a limited-edition Interstella 5555 merch run with t-shirts, hoodies, and turntable slipmats. It also includes limited vinyl and CD editions of ‘Discovery’ packaged with Interstella 5555 artwork. View the full collection here.

In February, Madame Tussauds New York displayed Daft Punk wax figures and held a French house tribute party with the robotic likenesses to mark the tenth anniversary of ‘Random Access Memories’.
The duo will also appear (in LEGO form) in Pharrell Williams’ upcoming biopic Piece by Piece alongside other prominent collaborators including Jay Z, Gwen Stefani, Kendrick Lamar, Snoop Dogg, Justin Timberlake and more.
