'Rise of the Guardians' To See Limited IMAX Release

3D animated feature brings childhood heroes together as never before in IMAX 3D.

LOS ANGELES -- IMAX and DreamWorks Animation announced that the animated feature Rise of the Guardians will be digitally re-mastered into the IMAX 3D format and released for a limited engagement in select IMAX international and domestic theatres starting November 21, 2012.

DreamWorks Animation's Rise of the Guardians is an epic adventure that tells the story of Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, the Tooth Fairy, the Sandman and Jack Frost — legendary heroes, each with extraordinary abilities. When an evil spirit known as Pitch threatens to take over the world, the immortal Guardians must join forces to protect the hopes, beliefs and imagination of all children on earth.

Rise of the Guardians is directed by Peter Ramsey and produced by Christina Steinberg and Nancy Bernstein. It features the voices of Chris Pine, Alec Baldwin, Hugh Jackman, Isla Fisher and Jude Law. It is inspired by the highly-acclaimed children's book series by William Joyce, who, together with Guillermo del Toro, serves as Executive Producer. The film will be distributed worldwide by Paramount Pictures Corporation.

The IMAX release of Rise of the Guardians will be digitally re-mastered into the image and sound quality of The IMAX 3D Experience with proprietary IMAX DMR (Digital Re-mastering) technology. The crystal-clear images coupled with IMAX's customized theatre geometry and powerful digital audio create a unique environment that will make audiences feel as if they are in the movie.
