Giant cinema screen operator IMAX has renewed and expanded its existing multi-screen deal with 21^st Century Fox. Its first deal with Fox was signed back in October 2015.

This new agreement covers Fox’s IMAX formatted movies and includes plenty of tempting content including Maze Runner: The Death Cure, Predator, Alita: Battle Angel and an as-yet untitled Marvel film. Each of these will be digitally remastered into the IMAX format.

“After sharing success with such recent box-office hits as the global phenomenon Deadpool, we are thrilled to sweeten the existing deal with our friends and partners at Twentieth Century Fox by providing IMAX fans worldwide a selection of the studio’s most exciting upcoming blockbusters,” said Greg Foster, CEO of IMAX Entertainment and SVP/IMAX Corp. “With this agreement, we look forward to expanding our partnership with Fox and together offer fans around the world IMAX’s one-of-a-kind movie-going experience.”
