Both Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers 4 will be the first films in history to be captured exclusively on 2D IMAX/Arri cameras.

The announcement came as part of the bigger reveal that Disney intends to shoot most of its upcoming blockbusters in the format.

This means that you'll be able to view Avengers: Infinity War, in its entirety, in a much more expansive aspect ratio than the traditional widescreen 2.40:1

You may have noticed certain scenes in Christopher Nolan films like The Dark Knight, The Dark Knight Rises and Interstellar expand to fill the entire IMAX screen (or your television at home) - but for certain scenes only, with the rest of the film restricted by letterbox bars.

Infinity War, on the other hand, will not switch between aspect ratios. The whole film is being shot so you can enjoy it in all its expansive glory.
