The A24 x IMAX Present screening series will continue every month for the next year, with IMAX digitally remastering classics from A24’s premium library of more than 140 feature films. Previous films remastered and released include Alex Garland’s ‘Ex Machina’. Arie Aster‘Hereditary’ and ‘Uncut Gems’ by the Safdie Brothers.
Screenings will take place at more than 300 IMAX locations nationwide and select locations internationally. Tickets are available here.
A24 and IMAX also collaborated on the remastering of the Talking Heads concert film ‘Stop Making Sense’. “The Tragedy of Macbeth,” “Everything Everywhere All at Once,” and “Beau is Afraid” had limited IMAX releases.
And while Aster is back in IMAX this summer season with “Midsommar,” his fourth film for A24 is underway. Titled “Eddington,” the modern Western stars are “Beau is Afraid” alum Joaquin Phoenix, Pedro Pascal, Austin Butler, Glen Powell and Emma Stone. “Yellowstone” actor Luke Grimes, Deirdre O’Connell, Micheal Ward and Clifton Collins Jr. also play the leading roles.
The film follows a small-town New Mexico sheriff with higher ambitions. The film is rumored to be a western set during the COVID pandemic. When a couple in the small town of Eddington run out of gas, they are initially greeted warmly, but by nightfall the town turns into a nightmare. Writer/director Aster said during a Reddit AMA that “Eddington” is a “Western-noir dark ensemble comedy.”
As for the latest IMAX films on the docket, IMAX CEO Rich Gelfond confirmed to IndieWire at Cannes that Francis Ford Coppola’s “Megalopolis” will have a limited IMAX release regardless of the film’s distributor. The feature film is still seeking distribution in the US after its debut at the festival. “We need to do more research,” Gelfond said at the time, “but the film will be suitable for cinephiles and Coppola fans.”
Paul Thomas Anderson’s upcoming Warner Bros. film, starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Sean Penn, Alana Haim, Regina Hall and Teyana Taylor, will also hit IMAX theaters on August 8, 2025. Warner Bros. considers Anderson’s feature film an “event film” worthy of the IMAX screen.
