Nearly 15 years after the first installment of the "Harry Potter" series hit theaters, all eight movies will be shown again at theaters across the country.
"'Harry Potter' is one of the most beloved film franchises of all time and is incredibly important to the history of IMAX. Therefore, being able to offer each installment -- especially the initial two for the very first time in IMAX -- makes this a truly magical event for fans," said Greg Foster, CEO of IMAX Entertainment and senior executive vice president of IMAX Corp.
According to Variety, the "Harry Potter" franchise has grossed approximately $216 million at IMAX theaters worldwide to date.
Fans, who have the option to purchase any of four admission packages -- single viewing ticket, one-day access, four-show access and "festival access" with unlimited admittance throughout the event -- will also hear recorded greetings from the film's stars and get a first look at a new trailer for "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them," Variety reported. Stars will also make appearances at screenings in Los Angeles and London and participate in a question-and-answer session.
Tickets to see the Potter films this month are on sale now at the IMAX website.
