Overview
- The film opens in Mexican cinemas on Thursday, July 16, with international windows following in mid-July.
- Universal and Nolan promoted the picture as the first fiction feature shot entirely with IMAX cameras after the director worked with IMAX engineers to build lighter, quieter cameras for dialogue and practical staging.
- Production billed the project as large-scale: reporting cites a budget near $250 million, a runtime of about 172–173 minutes, shoots across six countries and a record use of 70mm large-format film.
- Exhibitors have emphasized IMAX presentation, with Cinépolis and Cinemex listing specific Mexico City IMAX sites including Cinemex Antara Platino and select global venues offering 70mm or ultra-high-resolution screenings.
- Pre-release coverage mixes cast and crew promotion with opinion pieces that critique Nolan’s adaptation and casting choices, creating early debate that could affect audience expectations and box-office conversation.
