Oppenheimer in IMAX:

• Christopher Nolan designed Oppenheimer with IMAX in mind – capturing the film with IMAX cameras, amongst the highest-resolution film cameras in the world and refining the film throughout post-production in an IMAX theatre to further optimize how audiences will experience the film in IMAX.
• Oppenheimer is the only feature film shot with IMAX film cameras to be released in 2023.
• Exclusively in IMAX theatres, sequences shot with IMAX film cameras will expand vertically to fill the entire screen – allowing moviegoers to experience more of the image with unprecedented detail and clarity. That combined with next generation IMAX precision sound, creates a truly immersive experience.
• Oppenheimer was shot using a combination of IMAX 65mm and 65mm large-format film – including, for the first time, sections in IMAX black & white analog photography to enhance the storytelling experience.

Oppenheimer in IMAX 70mm:

• Oppenheimer will be proudly presented at select IMAX 70mm film locations delivering a distinctive and unique way to experience the film, the way director Christopher Nolan intended.
• All IMAX theatres offering 70mm film projection feature show-print quality films. This unique quality control technique ensures that each and every IMAX print is personally screened to meet the IMAX Gold Standard before being shipped to theatres globally.
• Each finished IMAX film print of Oppenheimer spans over 11 miles of film stock, weighs 600 lbs. and is shipped directly from IMAX to every 70mm film location.
