CGV Reveals March Technology Special Theater Lineup... From 'Hoppers' to 'Infinity Train' - A Sensory Satisfaction Lineup

CJ CGV has unveiled a technology special theater lineup that will provide audiences with overwhelming immersion throughout the month of March. This lineup consists of a diverse range of genres that can maximize the characteristics of special theaters, from sensory experience animations to high-speed racing, space sci-fi, and large-scale action animations, generating excitement among movie fans.

■ Opening on the 4th: 'Hoppers' (4DX) & 'Bride!' (IMAX)

The first film of March is Disney and Pixar's animal adventure 〈Hoppers〉. This film, released in 4DX format, presents the delicate movements of a girl turned into a robot beaver through sophisticated motion effects, giving the audience the sensation of actually becoming a beaver. Also opening on the same day is 〈Bride!〉, which can be enjoyed in IMAX. Set against the backdrop of 1930s America, this bold love story is brought to life on the big screen with vivid clarity, adding depth to the classic mise-en-scène.

■ Re-releasing on the 11th: 'F1® The Movie' (ScreenX, 4DX, IMAX)

Last year's sold-out hit 〈F1® The Movie〉 returns in three special theater formats. ScreenX expands the view to three sides to match the driver's perspective, enhancing the sense of openness on the circuit, while 4DX conveys the thrill of racing through engine vibrations and dynamic motion. IMAX maximizes the feeling of being in an actual stadium with powerful sound that vividly represents speed.

■ Opening on the 18th: 'Project Hail Mary' (ScreenX, 4DX, IMAX)

The sci-fi epic 〈Project Hail Mary〉, which captures the journey toward saving humanity, will also be screened in all special formats. Through ScreenX, audiences can enjoy the endlessly unfolding landscapes of space and alien planets on three sides, while 4DX expresses the isolation and urgency of space with delicate motion in a zero-gravity state. IMAX's gigantic screen is set to depict the awe-inspiring scale of the universe with overwhelming visuals.

■ Opening on the 20th & 25th: 'Attack on Titan' (4DX) & 'Demon Slayer' (ScreenX)

On the 20th, 〈Attack on Titan: The Final Season - The Last Attack〉 will have its first release in 4DX. The sensation of the three-dimensional maneuvering device's rotation, along with powerful vibrations during the 'ground rumble' scene, dust effects (Fog), and burning scent (Scent) effects, will provide an immersive experience as if the audience is in the midst of battle. Following this, on the 25th, 〈Demon Slayer: Infinity Train〉 will be released in ScreenX. The twisted spatial structure of infinity will be expanded on the three-sided screen, maximizing the scale of the fight scenes and broadening the emotional resonance.

CJ CGV's Jeon Jeong-hyun, head of content operations, stated, "We have prepared a wide range of works that can maximize the strengths of special theater formats," and added, "We hope audiences can vividly experience the world of each work through an expanded immersive experience." CGV will also conduct various events, including limited edition poster giveaways for viewing customers.
