Another brother duo, award-winning filmmakers Alex and Stephen Kendrick announced last year that they will be re-releasing their blockbuster film “Courageous” with new scenes and a new ending.

The fourth film from Sherwood Pictures is scheduled to be re-released in theaters. The brothers said viewers “will get to see what happens to many of the characters 10 years later! It’s a new ending with a few surprises!”

“Courageous” was originally released in 2011 and grossed $35.2 million, over 17 times its $2 million budget.

The Christian film follows Sheriff's Deputy Adam Mitchell (Alex Kendrick) who “endures a terrible personal tragedy that causes him to question what is really important to him. Taking comfort in his religion, Adam vows to become a better parent to his teenage son (Rusty Martin), and convinces his friends on the force to sign a pledge that they will all strive to become better Christians and better parents,” the film synopsis reads.
