Apple's summer blockbuster, "F1," is set to return to IMAX theaters starting this Friday, August 8, with tickets on sale now. The film, directed by Joseph Kosinski and starring Brad Pitt, has shown exceptional performance on IMAX screens, accounting for 23% of its North American opening weekend and over 19% of its global debut [1].

The re-release comes as Apple continues to capitalize on the film's strong legs at the box office. "F1" was shot with more than a dozen newly designed IMAX-certified digital cameras, strategically positioned to capture the speed, precision, and intensity of Formula 1 racing. The film is presented entirely in IMAX's exclusive 1.90:1 expanded aspect ratio and with a custom sound mix tailored to IMAX's acoustician-designed sound system [1].

The increasing popularity of IMAX screens and the unique nature of the film, which was intentionally designed for premium theatrical formats, contribute to its success. Director Kosinski worked closely with IMAX during preproduction, making specific creative and technical decisions to deliver a movie designed for the IMAX Experience [1].

Tickets for the "F1" re-release are available now through standard theatrical sales channels. The film's re-release in IMAX theaters is a testament to its global popularity and a strategic move to further boost its financial performance. As the summer movie season winds down, Apple and Warner Bros. Pictures are leveraging the IMAX experience to provide moviegoers with another opportunity to witness the adrenaline-pumping, big-screen spectacle of "F1" [2].
