Nolan has advised everyone to seeOppenheimerin the IMAX 70mm film format as that will give the best possible viewing experience.
The director said:
“The sharpness and the clarity and the depth of the image is unparalleled… You’re getting a feeling of 3D without the glasses. You’ve got a huge screen and you’re filling the peripheral vision of the audience. You’re immersing them in the world of the film.”
However, doing so might be impossible for many since there are only 25 theaters across North America that support this format. But the director still encouraged audiences to view the film in the format they were comfortable with.
Oppenheimerwill be available in theaters from June 30, 2025.
