Disney+ to get IMAX format for 13 Marvel movies including Shang-Chi, Black Panther
Disney+ has confirmed now that it’s introducing an expanded IMAX Enhanced feature. The new IMAX aspect ratio will be available for 13 Marvel movies, including Black Panther and Shang-Chi starting November 12 (AKA “Disney+ Day”).
The arrival of the new 1.90:1 IMAX aspect ratio will allow content to appear up to 26 percent taller than the typical 2.35:1 widescreen format in Marvel films. Disney states that this will mean reduced cinematic black bars, while you’re watching scenes shot in IMAX.
IMAX- Enhanced certified films will get a prominent label on their Disney+ screens, and users will also be able to choose the standard widescreen version of the films.
