IMAX and Warner Bros. Pictures announced today that Inception will be released to IMAX theatres simultaneously with the film’s wide release in conventional theatres on July 16, 2010. The film will be digitally re-mastered with IMAX DMR technology. This marks the third IMAX project for Christopher Nolan, and the debut for multiple Oscar nominee, and star of the film, Leonardo DiCaprio.
“Chris Nolan and IMAX have proven to be ideally suited to each other, and we’re very excited to bring them back together again for Inception,” said Dan Fellman, Warner Bros. Picture’s president of domestic distribution. “With the rapidly growing IMAX network, our IMAX audience base for this release will be significantly larger than it was for The Dark Knight, which will add to the film’s event status.” IMAX CEO Richard L. Gelfond proclaims “This is an incredible addition to our exciting and growing 2010 film slate. Chris Nolan’s unique vision combined with the talents of Leonardo DiCaprio and the rest of the cast creates the kind of cinematic event that resonates very well with IMAX moviegoers.”
This confirms that there will not be any footage shot an the actual IMAX film format, but rather that the 35mm film will be blown up to IMAX, Ã laBatman Begins.

After Gary Oldman’s quote last week, many people have been eager to learn more about the rumored The Dark Knight follow-up, aka Batman 3. MTV News wasted no opportunities and decided to ask Batman Begins co-writer David S. Goyer to reveal what he could. Quick to throw water on the fire that Gary Oldman ignited at the San Diego Comic-Con, Goyer responded by saying:”Right now, Chris is involved in filming Inception, and when he finishes that, he will turn his studious gaze back to the Bat universe and we’ll see.”Goyer was a little reluctant to answer, and it seems he saw the question coming from a mile away. Was he just giving us a canned answer to cover up a possible slip by Oldman? or was he being forthright?

We’ve received some inside tips informing us that director Christopher Nolan will be returning to the Cardington Airship Shed (in which he filmed parts of Batman Begins and The Dark Knight) to film his latest movie, Inception. The large Airship hanger was leased to Warner Bros back in 2003 for use on various television and film projects. It was used to build large sets of Gotham City for Batman Begins and The Dark Knight, and is now reportedly the home of a nearly completed set for next year’s Inception. Reports are that the crew often hang at the local pub, and that signs pointing towards the production can be seen around town. We’ve also been told that two large living accommodation caravans arrived this past weekend, and that set designers have been working with shed door partly open. Production on the big-budget “contemporary sci-fi actioner” began last month in Tokyo, Japan and will reportedly run until late November this year. Inception is set to hit theaters July 16, 2010.
