Overview

  • Tickets for IMAX 70mm showings went live on July 17, 2025, exactly one year ahead of the film’s July 17, 2026 debut.
  • Advance sales are confined to venues equipped with IMAX 70mm projectors and apply only to specific showtimes.
  • Nolan’s prior IMAX outings paid off handsomely—Oppenheimer earned $975 million worldwide with 20% of its revenue from large-format screenings.
  • The Odyssey marks the first feature shot entirely on redesigned IMAX 70mm film cameras, delivering quieter, lighter large-format production.
  • Universal and IMAX have offered no formal confirmation of the early sale even as teaser clips shown before blockbuster releases fuel anticipation.
