The post from @DiscussingFilm

 announces that Hayao Miyazaki's classic Studio Ghibli film Kiki's Delivery Service (1989) is getting its first-ever IMAX release in a brand-new 4K remastered version.Release date: March 13, 2026 (exclusive to IMAX theaters in North America, for a limited time — one week only in many locations).

It will be available in both the original Japanese with English subtitles and the English-dubbed version.

Tickets are already on sale through IMAX and participating theaters (like Regal, Harkins, etc.).

This follows the success of previous Ghibli IMAX releases (like Princess Mononoke) and is part of an ongoing partnership between GKIDS and IMAX to bring remastered Studio Ghibli titles to premium large-format screens.The announcement post includes beautiful key art/poster of Kiki flying on her broom with her cat Jiji, and it quickly went viral — over 28,000 likes and tons of excited fan reactions in the replies, with people sharing childhood nostalgia, hoping for more Ghibli films like Howl's Moving Castle, and joking about the dub quality.Seeing the hand-drawn details, vibrant colors, and flying sequences blown up on a massive IMAX screen should feel truly magical for fans. If you're in North America and love Ghibli, this is a rare big-screen chance to experience one of Miyazaki's most charming coming-of-age stories in stunning quality!
