In the words of the greatest Batman villain ever,Secret Confessions (2025) Week 7 Highlights 40 "If you're good at something, never do it for free."

Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight first premiered on July 18, 2008. Now, 10 years later, in honor of the film's anniversary, Warner Bros. is bringing the beloved superhero flick back to IMAX theaters.

A return to the big screen is especially fitting for the film's re-release, considering the role it played in pioneering IMAX technology. If you didn't catch the film in its "intended" (and gargantuan) form the first time around, here's the perfect chance to fix that 2008 FOMO.

The one week re-release promises to grow The Dark Knight's already record shattering $1 billion box office, but tickets for the event will be limited.

Beginning on August 24, the following theaters will screen The Dark Knight once a day:

• AMC Universal Citywalk IMAX, Universal City

• AMC Lincoln Square IMAX, New York City

• AMC Metreon IMAX, San Francisco

• Ontario Place Cinesphere IMAX, Toronto

Tickets for opening day will go on sale this Friday, June 20. Additional showtimes will be announced closer to screenings.

Following its original release, The Dark Knightreceived eight Academy Award nominations and, at present, still holds a 94% fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

Notably, Heath Ledger's performance as The Joker earned the late actor an Oscar, a Golden Globe, a Critics' Choice Award, and a Screen Actors Guild Award. Additionally, Christian Bale's Batman is wings and shoulders above Ben Affleck's more recent take. Just a fact!

Can't make it to the theater? The Dark Knightis available for rent or purchase on Amazon Video.
