If you’re planning on catching Aquaman in the IMAX format, then director James Wan has some exciting news for you as the filmmaker has revealed that “roughly 90%” of the movie has been shot using IMAX technology.
DC movies have always been at the forefront of the IMAX format, with Christopher Nolan shooting around half an hour of footage for 2008’s The Dark Knight using IMAX cameras. Since then, we’ve seen their use increasing in big budget Hollywood productions, with Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Justice League incorporating IMAX scenes, and the Russo brothers shooting the entirity of Marvel’s Avengers: Infinity War with IMAX cameras.
