LOS ANGELES, May 31, 2016 /PRNewswire/– Paramount Pictures, Nickelodeon Movies and IMAX Corporation today announced that Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows, the latest installment in the blockbuster franchise, will be digitally re-mastered into the immersive IMAX® format and released in IMAX® 3D theatres domestically for a special one-week run beginning Thursday, June 2, with 5:00 p.m. showtimes.
Additionally, the film will be released in approximately 30 select overseas IMAX markets, beginning June 1 and rolling out to additional markets such as Japan, Taiwan, Brazil and Mexico throughout the summer. The film will open in IMAX 3D in China on July 2.
“Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows is a fun fit for The IMAX Experience® with its larger-than-life effects and high-octane action, and we are pleased to partner again with our long-time friend Michael Bay and the whole team at Paramount in offering this film to domestic audiences in IMAX 3D,” said Greg Foster, Senior Executive Vice President, IMAX Corp. and CEO of IMAX Entertainment.
Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello and Michelangelo return to theaters this summer in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows to battle bigger, badder villains alongside April O’Neil (Megan Fox), Vern Fenwick (Will Arnett), and a newcomer: the hockey-masked vigilante Casey Jones (Stephen Amell). After super villain Shredder (Brian Tee) escapes custody, he joins forces with mad scientist Baxter Stockman (Tyler Perry) and two dimwitted henchmen, Bebop (Gary Anthony Williams) and Rocksteady (WWE Superstar “Sheamus”), to unleash a diabolical plan to take over the world. As the Turtles prepare to take on Shredder and his new crew, they find themselves facing an even greater evil with similar intentions: the notorious Krang.
