New Dunkirk IMAX Poster to the Rescue

Warner Bros. Pictures has released the new IMAX poster for Christopher Nolan’s Dunkirk, opening in theaters on July 21. Nolan directed Dunkirk from his own original screenplay, utilizing a mixture of IMAX and 65mm film to bring the story to the screen. Check out the Dunkirk IMAX poster below!

Following his use of IMAX cameras in The Dark Knight, The Dark Knight Rises and Interstellar, Christopher Nolan designed Dunkirk for IMAX – capturing a large portion of the film with IMAX’s 15perf 65m film cameras, the highest-resolution cameras in the world. Exclusively in IMAX theatres, scenes shot with this camera will expand to fill the entire screen, allowing moviegoers to see up to 40% more of the image with unprecedented crispness, clarity and color saturation for a truly immersive experience.
