One of Christopher Nolan‘s earliest movie, and one that many still hold up to be the best of his career, is getting rereleased on 70mm and Imax.
The 2006 mystery thriller The Prestige, based on the novel of the same name by Christopher Priest, is heading back to theaters for a limited engagement. This time, though, the movie will be able to be seen in both 70mm and Imax formats. The movie is set to begin screening on January 29, 2027, and will see it screen on both 70mm and Imax for the first time.
“I’m very excited to bring The Prestige back to the big screen, and particularly thrilled to offer audiences the chance to see it on 70mm film, and on Imax for the first time,” said Nolan in a statement on the announcement.
