IMAX Corporation has sent out the following press release for its two-week Iron Man 2 run:
IMAX Corporation, Marvel Entertainment and Paramount Pictures today announced that the highly-anticipated action-adventure Iron Man 2, directed by Jon Favreau and starring Robert Downey, Jr., will open for a special limited two-week engagement in 182 IMAX(R) theatres domestically on May 7, 2010, and in 68 IMAX theatres internationally, with 51 of those runs opening this weekend. The IMAX release has been digitally re-mastered into the image and sound quality of The IMAX Experience(R) with IMAX DMR(R) technology.
"The buzz surrounding Iron Man 2 is continuing to grow rapidly, and the IMAX release is certainly contributing to it by driving excitement and anticipation to experience the film in the best possible way," said Tim Connors, Chief Operating Officer, Marvel Studios. "We’re very happy that the IMAX release is available to moviegoers worldwide, and we’re looking forward to starting with international runs this weekend."
"Iron Man 2 has become a highly anticipated part of our 2010 film slate, and our growing network will enable us to further capitalize on the global appeal of this film," said IMAX CEO Richard L. Gelfond. "This action-packed title is ideally suited to The IMAX Experience, and we’re very optimistic that audiences around the world will seek out the most in-your-face way to experience it."
"Marvel’s iconic Iron Man story, Jon Favreau’s brilliant vision and The IMAX Experience were made for each other, and audiences are in for an exciting and thrilling ride when they go to see Iron Man 2 in an IMAX theatre," added Greg Foster, Chairman and President of IMAX Filmed Entertainment.
Based on Marvel’s iconic Super Hero, Iron Man 2 continues the story of the 2008 summer box office blockbuster Iron Man, the first feature film to be produced independently by Marvel Studios. The first film in the franchise has grossed over a half billion dollars worldwide at the box office.
Iron Man 2: The IMAX Experience is scheduled to play at the following IMAX Theatres beginning May 7th.
