There’s a big beautiful world out there to be explored and thanks to the beautiful cinematic imagery that the IMAX experience provides and the access Hulu is giving all of us you can enjoy the adventure to various exotic locations with heartwarming stories from your living room.
“With people at home there is an immense and growing desire for discovery, particularly for students, families and children. For years IMAX has helped share the power of the natural world and the potential of human existence, and now, together with Hulu, we can bring those incredible, enlightening experiences to millions more,” said Megan Colligan, President of IMAX Entertainment.
IMAX has produced over 75 documentaries in the many years since their first film “Tiger Child” debuted. Since then IMAX cameras have gone to space more than any human being (24 times!) and have journeyed to the farthest corners of the Earth to bring the beauty and wonder of the world and beyond in stunning images that only IMAX can provide. With voice narration by Kristen Bell (“Pandas” 2018), Chris Evans (“SUPERPOWER DOGS” 2019), Jennifer Lawrence (“A Beautiful Planet” 2016), and Tom Cruise (“Space Station” 2002), and Patrick Stewart “THE SECRET OF LIFE ON EARTH” (1996).
The next documentary film from IMAX will be “Asteroid Hunters,” narrated by Daisy Ridley.
