USA Apollo 11 (2019) - May 14, 2019


Universal will be releasing the new documentary Apollo 11 on May 14th. The critically acclaimed feature will be getting a limited theatrical run in IMAX and other formats next week, and a wider release the following week.


Quote:
The Todd Douglas Miller documentary, which features never-before-seen 70mm footage and previously unheard audio from the historic first moon landing mission, will exclusively debut in IMAX theaters for one week only beginning March 1.

The feature-length film, which premiered to critical acclaim at the 2019 Sundance Film Festival, will then open in movie theaters everywhere on March 8.

"We're so excited to be working with NEON and IMAX on this very special event film," said Miller in a statement. "Ever since we saw the first frame of 65mm film footage roll off the film scanner we always envisioned 'Apollo 11' to be seen on the biggest screens possible."

"IMAX theaters are the cathedrals of cinema and we can't think of a more perfect way for audiences to enjoy the adventure of 'Apollo 11,'" he said.

"Apollo 11" was crafted from a trove of archival footage and more than 11,000 hours of uncatalogued audio recordings. The film gives audiences a front row seat for NASA's most celebrated mission, which forever made Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins household names. Immersed in the perspectives of the astronauts, the team in Mission Control and the millions of spectators on the ground, moviegoers will vividly experience the days in July 1969 when humankind took its first giant leap onto another world.
