In The Dark Knight Batman raises the stakes in his war on crime. With the help of Lieutenant Jim Gordon and District Attorney Harvey Dent, Batman sets out to dismantle the remaining criminal organizations that plague the city streets. The partnership proves to be effective, but they soon find themselves prey to a reign of chaos unleashed by a rising criminal mastermind known to the terrified citizens of Gotham as the Joker.
Academy Award nominee Heath Ledger (Brokeback Mountain) stars as arch-villain The Joker, and Aaron Eckhart plays District Attorney Harvey Dent. Maggie Gyllenhaal joins the cast in the role of Rachel Dawes. Returning from Batman Begins are Gary Oldman as Lieutenant Jim Gordon; Oscar Winner Michael Caine (The Cider House Rules) as Alfred; and and Oscar winner Morgan Freeman (Million Dollar Baby) as Lucius Fox.
The Dark Knight features six sequences filmed with IMAX® cameras (including the opening six minutes of the film). This marks the first time ever that a major feature film has been even partially shot using IMAX cameras, marking a revolutionary integration of the two film formats.
The sequences shot in traditional 35mm will be digitally re-mastered into The IMAX Experience® with IMAX’s proprietary DMR® technology and will appear in IMAX letterbox, while scenes shot with IMAX’s cameras on 15/70mm film will expand vertically to fill the entire Tuttleman IMAX screen, for an all-encompassing IMAX Experience.
The Tulleman IMAX® theater will allow audiences to experience The Dark Night in the most immersive way, with IMAX’s larger-than-life images, state of the art digital surround sound, all-encompassing screens and patented theatre geometry – designed to put you IN the movie.
