Sully, starring Tom Hanks and directed by Clint Eastwood, is filmed almost entirely with the new ALEXA IMAX(r) 65mm cameras and opens in Shaw Theatres IMAX on 8 September.
While designing the new film about the Miracle on the Hudson, director Clint Eastwood did so with IMAX in mind and shot 99% of the entire film with the new ALEXA IMAX(r) 65mm cameras. The cameras, when combined with IMAX's digital re-mastering process, deliver the highest level of digital image capture and playback resulting in stunning lifelike images with pristine clarity, incredibly fine detail, vivid colors and a higher dynamic range for superior contrast.
Exclusively in IMAX(r) theatres, Sully will be presented in an expanded IMAX 1.9:1 aspect ratio and fill more of the IMAX screen, which will allow moviegoers to see 26% more of the image than standard cinemas for a truly immersive experience. Moviegoers can experience the way the movie was intended to be experienced at Shaw Theatres IMAX - Lido, JCube and Waterway Point. Tickets are now on sale at www.shaw.sg/IMAX
From Oscar-winning director Clint Eastwood comes Warner Bros. Pictures' and Village Roadshow Pictures' drama Sully, starring Oscar winner Tom Hanks as Captain Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger. On January 15, 2009, the world witnessed the "Miracle on the Hudson" when Captain "Sully" Sullenberger glided his disabled plane onto the frigid waters of the Hudson River, saving the lives of all 155 aboard. However, even as Sully was being heralded by the public and the media for his unprecedented feat of aviation skill, an investigation was unfolding that threatened to destroy his reputation and his career. Sully also stars Aaron Eckhart as Sully's co-pilot, Jeff Skiles, and Oscar nominee Laura Linney as Sully's wife, Lorrie Sullenberger.
