‘Star Wars: The Last Jedi’: Here’s Every Movie Theater Showing Rian Johnson’s Sequel in IMAX 70mm

Breathe. Just breathe. Tickets for “Star Wars: The Last Jedi” finally go on sale tonight, October 9, right after the official trailer debuts during Monday Night Football. Disney and Lucasfilm will be opening the highly anticipated sequel in theaters nationwide in a variety of different formats, including digital and IMAX, but only 10 theaters in the country and one across the pond in London will be presenting “The Last Jedi” on massive 70mm IMAX screens.

Johnson shot the film on 35mm and select scenes were filmed using IMAX cameras, which makes the 70mm IMAX experience quite the treat if you happen to live near one of the 10 theaters screening “The Last Jedi” this way. The new entry in the space opera franchise is the second major IMAX 70mm release of the year following Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” over the summer. A majority of locations will be presenting the film digitally, but IMAX has confirmed the 70mm theaters below.
