The much anticipated James Cameron movie Avatar, which has broken new ground in terms of CGI/Live Action FX will be getting a three month commitment from IMAX, when the film eventually premieres in December.
According to the New York Times IMAX are rolling out the red carpet for Cameron’s return to the world of cinema.
The company’s ultra-big-screen theaters so far aren’t slated for any movies other than Avatar between that movie’s Dec. 18 debut and the arrival of Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland on March 5, the newspaper reported.
By contrast, Star Trek got only two weeks on the IMAX circuit.
Avatar centres on an ex marine who is torn between duty and honor when he finds himself caught in a battle between the heavily armed forces of Earth’s most powerful star-faring consortium and an exotic, noble alien race whose entire world is threatened by the human invaders.
The movie stars Terminator Salvation actor Sam Worthington, Star Trek’s Zoe Saldana and Aliens star Sigourney Weaver.
