“‘Underworld’ is one of Screen Gems’ most important franchises, so it’s important to us to present the movie as its fans want to see it: on the IMAX screen,” said Rory Bruer, president of Worldwide Distribution for Sony Pictures Releasing.
“The ‘Underworld’ franchise has established a dedicated fan following and we think ‘Underworld Awakening’ will serve as a terrific kick off to our robust 2012 film slate,” said Greg Foster, Chairman and President of IMAX Filmed Entertainment.
The IMAX release of Underworld Awakening will be digitally re-mastered into the image and sound quality of “The IMAX 3D Experience” with proprietary IMAX DMR (Digital Re-mastering) technology. The crystal-clear images coupled with IMAX’s customized theatre geometry and powerful digital audio create a unique environment that will make audiences feel as if they are in the movie.
