The Revenant is coming back to theaters in IMAX this year. On Sunday March 1, 20th Century Studios welcomes audiences to revisit a modern cinema favorite. Alejandro G. Inarritu’s harrowing tale is embarking on a new campaign. Leonardo DiCaprio stars in The Revenant. The United States, Mexico, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Spain, Australia and more will get in on the re-release.

 The Academy Awards singled out DiCaprio and Inarritu for their work on The Revenant. It’s hard to believe but this movie dropped all the way back in 2015. Critical acclaim and box office success followed. As we’ve learned in the intervening years, something that can be a little difficult for movies aimed at an older audience. Emmanuel Lubezki was cinematographer on The Revenant, and his work continues to resonate in action filmmaking now. 

Fans attending the re-release can also grab a The Making of The Revenant book. Insight Editions teamed with New Regency to bring that to life. There are only 500 copies being made. The stars and director have signed those editions from 1-150. 

The Revenant returns to theaters!

The Revenant

Here’s how 20th Century describes the re-release: It’s “Inspired by true events, THE REVENANT is an immersive and visceral cinematic experience capturing one man’s epic adventure of survival and the extraordinary power of the human spirit. In an expedition of the uncharted American wilderness, legendary explorer Hugh Glass (Leonardo DiCaprio) is brutally attacked by a bear and left for dead by members of his own hunting team.” 

“In a quest to survive, Glass endures unimaginable grief as well as the betrayal of his confidant John Fitzgerald (Tom Hardy). Guided by sheer will and the love of his family, Glass must navigate a vicious winter in a relentless pursuit to live and find redemption. THE REVENANT is directed and co-written by renowned filmmaker, Academy Award® winner Alejandro G. Iñárritu (Birdman, Babel).”
