Disney+ on Monday announced that it was adding an expanded IMAX aspect ratio for Shang-Chi, Black Panther and 11 other films starting November 12, which is Disney+ Day. IMAX Enhanced, which was launched in 2018, uses 40 per cent larger screens and a 26 per cent taller aspect ratio. Compared to the standard 2.35:1, IMAX uses a 1.90:1 IMAX aspect ratio which almost makes the black bars on the screen disappear.
IMAX had launched its IMAX enhanced program back in 2018 in partnership with DTS to give users the closest-IMAX experience possible outside the multiplexes. It is compatible with some devices From Sony Bravia and TCL. The program aims to give users an immersive experience by collaborating with consumer electronics with IMAX digitally re-mastered 4K HDR content and DTS audio technologies. Now, Disney+ is changing its aspect ratio to IMAX Enhanced to give users a more immersive experience.
