Restoration and DVD Release
An initial restoration of Hondo was overseen by Wayne's son Michael, head of Batjac Productions, in the late 1980s culminating in a 3D television broadcast of the movie in June 1991. 3D glasses were sold to viewers with proceeds going to charity.
A frame-by-frame digital restoration of the film was later completed, and the DVD of it was released on October 11, 2005.
