IMAX Corporation announced Tuesday that its worldwide theater network generated $728 million in box-office revenue between Memorial Day and Labor Day, marking its strongest summer on record. The figure was 73% above the company's previous summer record set in 2023, and from June through August, IMAX screens represented 5.8% of the global box office, the highest share it has recorded for the period, from a network of just over 1,800 screens. Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey was a major contributor, generating $485 million through IMAX screens, making it the highest-grossing release in the company's history, with IMAX accounting for 30% of the movie's worldwide box office. The film also helped IMAX record its biggest Labor Day weekend, and screenings have been extended through September 30 at 39 IMAX 70mm locations worldwide. IMAX is projecting $1.4 billion in worldwide box-office revenue for 2026, with upcoming releases including Dune: Part Three, Resident Evil, Digger, Street Fighter, and Godzilla Minus Zero.
