The event, sent to be held on April 30th at the BMCC Tribeca Performing Arts Center, is taking place in celebration of the film's 30th anniversary. Tickets go on sale on March 26 at 11 a.m. ET.

Crowe, who also wrote Say Anything, confirmed the news on Twitter Thursday.

"Can't believe it's been 30 years since we made Say Anything... The movie grew out of many inspiring conversations with James L. Brooks, and a quest to bring a new kind of romantic couple to the screen," Crowe said in a statement.

"Out of those many afternoons came the script, the opportunity to direct my own screenplay, and the great adventure of working with these wonderful actors... We also had the gift of Peter Gabriel allowing us to use his extremely personal song, 'In Your Eyes.' No other song ever worked coming out of that boombox," he continued.
