Regal Cinemas will immerse moviegoers in four fan-favorite movies for just $3 on ScreenX Day. Blockbusters Spider-Man: No Way Home, Bohemian Rhapsody, Top Gun: Maverick, and The Batman are returning to select theaters for one day only on Saturday, April 29th, so fans can experience the movies in ultra-immersive ScreenX — the world’s first multi-projection theater technology that expands the picture beyond the screen and onto the auditorium walls. With ScreenX’s 270-degree panoramic viewing experience (available at participating Regal locations), audiences attending the festival showings will feel like they’re in the middle of the movies.

According to Regal, moviegoers who attend the one-day event showings in the premium ScreenXformat will “swing across rooftops in Spider-Man: No Way Home, join the crowd watching Freddie sing in Bohemian Rhapsody, see the sky stretch out around you in Top Gun: Maverick, and patrol the streets of Gotham in The Batman.” Tickets and a list of participating Regal theaters are available on the official website.
The 270-degree immersive cinema experience uses up to twelve additional laser digital projectors to form ScreenX “wings,” walls specifically created and installed with a special fabric that ensures brightness and colors closely match the center screen along the full length of the auditorium. Along with special software that blends multiple images into one seamless image extending from the center out, as well as strategically-placed audio systems and speakers, ScreenX offers movies in what it calls a “fully immersive” format.
