Marvel has just revealed plans to screen all 20 of their Marvel Cinematic Universe movies at IMAX theaters over the course of a week as part of their tenth anniversary, with a few repeats thrown in for good measure, and two slots for movies to that are fan favorites to screen again.
It should be noted that this will mark the first time that Marvel will screen three of their movies in the IMAX format, and those movies are Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk, and Captain America: The First Avenger. The first five days of the event will play every movie in release order, with four movies playing every day. Following this, there will be a day dedicated to four of the most successful team-up movies, followed by another day dedicated to team-ups. Finally, there will be an extra day where two fan-chosen movies will get encore presentations. You can see the announcement video below:
