Earlier today it was revealed that Sony would be re-releasing Ghostbusters in theaters this August. Now comes word that Paramount will also be putting Forrest Gump back into IMAX theaters on September 5:
Because YOU demanded it...apparently. Paramount will re-release FORREST GUMP in IMAX on Sept. 5, 2014.
This year marks the film’s 20th anniversary, and Paramount is looking to revive the classic in a big way. While the IMAX format isn’t usually used for dramas, Forrest Gump also featured groundbreaking visual effects for the time, which will be seen like never before.
It’s a surprising choice, but remember, the movie was huge back in the ‘90s. Would you be willing to catch Forrest Gump in IMAX?
