J.J. Abrams’ much-anticipated Star Trek Into Darkness is going to be showing off nine minutes of footage at select IMAX 3D presentations of The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey.
Today, Paramount Pictures has released a full list of locations and you can check it out by clicking here.
“Our longtime partners J.J. Abrams, Bryan Burk and the Bad Robot team have really hit it out of the park – the footage is absolutely incredible,” said Greg Foster, Chairman and President, IMAX Filmed Entertainment. “Their use of the IMAX Camera and canvas is sure to impress current and future Star Trek fans alike, and we’re thrilled to once again work with our friends at Paramount Pictures to offer this extended ‘first look’ at this highly anticipated summer blockbuster.”
To further the IMAX experience, Star Trek Into Darkness used IMAX cameras to capture several sequences. Exclusively in IMAX theaters, sequences filmed with the extremely high-resolution cameras will expand to fill more of the screen with unprecedented crispness and clarity, putting moviegoers right into the explosive action and vast scope of the film.
Similar IMAX previews have been used to great success with films like The Dark Knight, Avatar and, last year, Paramount’s own Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol.
The film is set for release on May 17, 2013.
