On This Day: May 25, 1988 - Crocodile Dundee II Premiered in Theaters
On this day May 25, 1988, Crocodile Dundee II premiered in theaters and brought back the lovable outback hero for another round of action and comedy. Directed by John Cornell and starring Paul Hogan alongside Linda Kozlowski, the sequel followed Mick Dundee as he faced off against drug lords and city dangers before heading back to the Australian wilderness where he was most at home.

With its mix of humor, fish out of water moments, and rugged charm, the film delivered exactly what fans loved about the original. It was a box office hit, earning 109 million dollars in the United States and 239 million worldwide, making it the sixth highest grossing movie of 1988.

Fun fact: Paul Hogan not only starred in the film but also co-wrote the script, helping shape the character that became an international icon.
