Six minuets of Ridley Scott's upcoming biographical drama Napoleon will be screened in IMAX theaters for audiences this weekend.
The Big Picture With the release of director Ridley Scott’s latest film, Napoleon, only a few weeks away, anticipation continues to elevate to an all-time high. Now fans can get an extended sneak peek at the upcoming historical epic as the film’s official Twitter page has revealed that special IMAX screens exclusively at select Regal theaters will show six minutes of footage from the movie this weekend.
Details on the footage that is to be shown remain under wraps, but it will likely utilize the format to show off a closer look at one of the film’s epic battle scenes. The focus on IMAX does make sense, as it has surged in popularity recently, showcased earlier this year with the unprecedented success of Oppenheimer, another R-rated historical biopic.
The film was initially slated to be released as an Apple TV+ exclusive before switching to a worldwide theatrical push alongside Killers of the Flower Moon. The film’s push to theaters makes sense as the life of Napoleon is certainly one worthy of the big screen, and with six minutes of footage shown in such a prestige format, audiences can get a taste of what to expect on an epic scale this weekend only at Regal Cinemas.
'Napoleon' Will Debut on Apple TV+ Following its Theatrical Run Starring Academy Award-winner Joaquin Phoenix as the historical Emperor of the French, Napoleon centers on his rise to power in post-revolutionary France while also serving as a deeper insight into his relationship with his wife, Empress Joséphine, played by Vanessa Kirby. Following its theatrical window, the film will make its way to Apple TV+ with an extended director’s cut.
Napoleon marches into cinemas worldwide on November 22. Check out the official trailer for the upcoming film below.
