Many of the Best Picture Oscar contenders will return to the big screen before Hollywood’s biggest night. A few of them are even coming back to beloved Imax 70mm screens.

Sinners will return to select Imax 70mm screens during its Oscar run and potentially beyond.

Sinners is the only film between Chris Nolan’s Oppenheimer  and his upcoming Odyssey to be shot with Imax film cameras.

Ryan Coogler shot the movie on 70mm film and, before its release, he educated audiences on the different aspect ratios and the importance of Imax screens.

With 16 Oscar nods, “Sinners” became the most-nominated film of all time, surpassing 14-time nominees “All About Eve,” “Titanic” and “La La Land.”

Coogler is nominated for best director, and Michael B. Jordan is up for best actor for his performance of twins Smoke and Stack.

A24 announced that its 9 time Oscar nominee Marty Supreme will get a nationwide Imax run starting Jan. 30. The Josh Safdie film, which is the studio’s highest-grossing domestic release, stars Timothée Chalamet as a ping pong superstar opposite Odessa A’zion, Gwyneth Paltrow, Kevin O’Leary and Tyler, the Creator.

F1 is exploring a potential return to Imax 70mm screens. Apple’s Brad Pitt racing blockbuster landed 4 Oscar nods, including for Best Picture.

It’s a big year for Imax, with blockbusters and auteur films on the company’s screens.

At least 20% of the domestic box office openings for “Sinners,” “One Battle After Another” and “F1” came from Imax tickets.
