If you’re a fan of immersive cinema experiences, you’ll want to pay attention to the latest announcement regarding Ryan Coogler’s Sinners. This film, perfectly optimized for the awe-inspiring IMAX format, is crucial viewing for all movie aficionados. However, with the frenetic pace of summer blockbusters, it seems Sinners may not be gracing your local IMAX screen for long. But there’s a silver lining!
Warner Bros. has just revealed that Sinners will return to select 70mm IMAX screens from Thursday, May 15 to Wednesday, May 21, with tickets already up for grabs. This limited engagement promises an extraordinary cinematic experience that fans won’t want to miss.
According to Jeff Goldstein, President of Global Distribution at Warner Bros. Pictures, “Audiences have spoken, and we listened. If ever a film needed to be experienced in this incredible larger-than-life format, it’s Sinners. Ryan has delivered a film embraced by fans, and we wanted to give everyone the opportunity to see it—in 70mm IMAX.”
Having had the chance to watch Sinners in 70mm IMAX last week, I can confidently say it was a breathtaking experience. Coogler utilized the full 1:43 IMAX ratio, similar to the stunning visuals we’ve come to expect from directors like Christopher Nolan and Denis Villeneuve. The result? An image so colossal and intricate, it truly feels like you’re sharing the screen with the vampires.
Wondering where you can see Sinners? Check out the following theaters offering this special engagement:
- City Walk Stadium 19 + IMAX (Los Angeles)
- Irvine Spectrum and IMAX (Irvine)
- Lincoln Square 13 + IMAX (New York)
- Metreon 16 + IMAX (San Francisco)
- Indiana State Museum (Indianapolis)
- Arizona Mills IMAX (Phoenix)
- Autonation IMAX (Ft. Lauderdale)
- Webb Chapel IMAX (Dallas)
- Colossus IMAX (Toronto)
These locations also happen to be some of the few places worldwide where Sinners has been screened in 70mm IMAX over the past two weeks. Exciting, right?
So, why is Sinners facing limited availability? As is often the case, the arrival of other highly anticipated films, such as Marvel Studios’ Thunderbolts, means that it takes precedence for those prized IMAX slots for several weeks. Films like Final Destination: Bloodlines and the new Mission: Impossible installment will follow in line, adding to the stiff competition for these screens. Thankfully, Sinners is getting another shot at the spotlight!

What does IMAX offer compared to traditional theaters? IMAX enhances the cinematic experience with larger screens and superior audio, providing a truly immersive environment for audiences.

Should I consider watching Sinners more than once? Absolutely! Watching in IMAX once may not be enough; the stunning visuals and sound deserve to be experienced multiple times.
