When it arrived in theaters in January, the remastered 1981 concert was Imax’s biggest exclusive engagement. Now, it’s arrived on the streamer alongside 18 Marvel films also offered with Imax Enhanced sound on supported devices.
The original concerts, featuring Freddie Mercury, Brian May, Roger Taylor and John Deacon, took place over two consecutive nights in November 1981, and were arranged specifically to be filmed for a full-length concert film to document their live show. The performance includes classics such as “Another One Bites the Dust,” “Bohemian Rhapsody” and “Somebody to Love.” It was restored for Imax by Mercury Studios.
The new arrival is the latest in a longtime relationship between Imax and Disney Entertainment. Marvel movies that will also be available with Imax Enhanced sound at launch include “Avengers: Infinity War,” “Avengers: Endgame,” “Black Panther,” “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever,” “Guardians of the Galaxy (Volumes 2 and 3),” “Black Widow” and “Doctor Strange.”
In addition to the remastered concert film marking Imax’s plan to distribute more concert movies, it also marks Disney’s continued interest in concert films. Also exclusively available to stream on Disney+ is “Elton John Live: Farewell From Dodger Stadium,” “Bono & The Edge: A Sort of Homecoming,” “Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour,” and dozens more. Most recently, The Beatles’ doc “Let It Be” just re-premiered on the streamer last month.
