Recently, the date for Marvel and Sony’s Spider-Man reboot was moved for July 7, 2017. Following this announcement, the studios divulged through a press release that the reboot will be released in IMAX and IMAX 3D.
Sony President of Worldwide Marketing and Distribution Josh Greenstein said that the action in the movie will look great on the IMAX screen: "There's so much about Spider-Man - including the web-slinging action - that lends itself perfectly to the IMAX screen."
"IMAX's long-standing relationship with Marvel and Sony first began with Spider-Man in 2002, establishing the ultimate way for fans to be transported into the world of their favorite characters like Peter Parker. By re-teaming with our friends at Sony and Marvel on the newest Spider-Man reboot, we are excited to deliver audiences what they're asking for: a must-see cinematic adventure - in IMAX." CEO of IMAX Entertainment added.
