Cineplex, Canada's leading entertainment and media company, in partnership with CJ 4DPLEX, the world's leading producer of premium film formats and cinema technologies, announced today that British Columbia's second ScreenX auditorium is now open at Cineplex Cinemas Langley. The new immersive, panoramic experience debuts today, July 7, at the theatre with Marvel Studios' highly anticipated Thor: Love and Thunder.      

ScreenX is the world's first multi-projection theatre technology that allows a 270-degree panoramic movie watching experience. ScreenX uses a proprietary system to expand specially selected sequences of the film onto the left and right-side walls of the auditorium, surrounding the audience with exclusive imagery as though they were inside the movie. ScreenX provides a virtual reality-like setting with cinema-quality resolution, creating a truly immersive experience for moviegoers.

"We are thrilled to offer movie-lovers in Langley yet another truly immersive theatrical experience, just in time for one of the biggest blockbusters of the summer," said Kevin Watts, Executive Vice President, Exhibition & LBE, Cineplex. "ScreenX is one of the latest state-of-the-art technologies we've introduced to provide a memorable escape for movie lovers that can't be replicated at home."

"We are very excited to continue our expansion in Canada and continue our partnership with Cineplex.

ScreenX is extremely powerful in immersing audiences into the film, and Cineplex's commitment to open additional locations across the country has proven this," said Don Savant, CEO & President, CJ 4DPLEX America.

In 2018, Canada's first ScreenX auditorium opened at Cineplex Cinemas Queensway and VIP in Toronto, Ontario.
