Imax and Paramount Pictures to extend their biz ties from next year

MUMBAI: With the release of Michael Bay‘s Transformers 4 in June 2014 and a co-production of Christopher Nolan‘s Interstellar in November of the same year, Imax and Paramount Pictures will extend their business ties to release five of the Hollywood studio‘s upcoming films.

The extended deal follows Imax successfully releasing Nolan‘s The Dark Knight. In that film and Bay‘s upcoming Transformers 4, Imax‘s proprietary cameras will be pressed into service to fill the large-format exhibitor‘s screens.
 
"Imax is among the greatest ways to experience a movie," Rob Moore, vice chairman of Paramount Pictures has said in a statement. "Working with today‘s top filmmakers, we look forward to bringing audiences the most exciting new movies with the very best presentation for years to come," he added.

Three other films from Paramount Pictures that are still to be announced will be part of the agreement.
