These days, it's practically standard for big blockbuster movies to film in IMAX, and it's more surprising when you see something that doesn't have some sort of run in premium formats. Time on IMAX screens has become increasingly precious since the pandemic, when experiences that could only happen in movie theaters, like IMAX or ScreenX, became the driving force behind people's continued support for theaters, even as so many movies made the jump to PVOD mere weeks after release. As standard as it might seem, it's still good to see filmmakers so excited about the format to this day, and how people continue to try and do new and interesting things with it. Supergirl is another big blockbuster getting the IMAX treatment, and we got a new behind-the-scenes featurette spotlighting the format and talking about how it elevates big moments into something even bigger.
