‘Mission: Impossible 5′ Set for Imax Release

“Mission: Impossible 5″ has been set for release in Imax theaters as part of its worldwide launch on July 31.

Paramount Pictures, Skydance Productions, Bad Robot and Imax made the announcement Friday. The film will be digitally remastered into the Imax format.

Producers are Tom Cruise, J.J. Abrams and Bryan Burk. Christopher McQuarrie directs, with Jeremy Renner, Simon Pegg and Ving Rhames reprising their roles. Alec Baldwin, Rebecca Ferguson and Sean Harris also star.

“Imax is so important in giving the audience the best experience of the film we have made,” Cruise said.

Paramount decided two weeks ago that it would move the release date forward by five months from Christmas to July 31.
