The Odyssey honors IMAX pioneer David Keighley

Christopher Nolan's epic "The Odyssey" includes a special credit tribute to the late David Keighley, who died in September 2025. Keighley served as IMAX's Chief Quality Officer for 15 years and was instrumental in bringing large‑format filmmaking into mainstream cinema, mentoring directors like Nolan and overseeing post‑production on numerous IMAX releases. The film, the first narrative feature shot entirely with IMAX cameras, displays a dedicated card reading "For our friend, David Keighley" amid its rapid double‑sided credits. The tribute highlights his lifelong passion for IMAX, from co‑founding a post‑production company in the 1970s to ensuring every IMAX print met his exacting standards.

IMAX boss says new 70mm projectors not practical

Christopher Nolan’s film shot entirely on 15/70 mm cameras has driven fans to locate the roughly 41 theaters worldwide capable of projecting its IMAX format. The scarcity of suitable venues means many moviegoers cannot experience the picture as intended, prompting discussions about expanding the network. An IMAX executive explained that constructing additional 70 mm projectors to meet demand would be financially and logistically impractical, citing high costs, limited screen space, and the niche nature of the format. The company plans to focus on existing installations rather than a broad rollout, leaving the film’s full‑resolution experience confined to a small number of locations.
