Crocodile Dundee is a 1986 Australia comedy adventure by Peter Faiman.
Starring Paul Hogan, Linda Kozlowski and John Meillon.
 A 4K remastered and cut version titled Crocodile Dundee: The Encore Cut ,
premiered in Sydney in early 2025. It will be re-released in cinemas in May. In the new cut of the film, two and a half minutes of footage has been edited out.
- Among the moments removed is the scene in which Paul Hogan's Mick Dundee grabs a bar patron in the groin and declares that was a guy, dressed up like a sheila, while someone else yells 'faggot'.
- A callback to the scene later when Mick does
the same thing to a woman at a party, telling her, I was just making sure, has also been removed.
Paul Hogan agreed with those scenes and others being edited out of the film. He said: I heard about it years ago, it started, it wasn't about being woke. They pointed out to me and said, 'This guy is a folk hero around the world. He
shouldn't be groping people.' And I thought, 'Yeah that's right, he shouldn't be', so take it out. I mean, he did it in all innocence, in naivety, but it's better without it.
Production company Rimfire Films said:
Some years ago, Paramount Pictures and other distributors requested the reference to the crossdresser be edited from the original film, as they found it offensive. We agreed to that request.
