With sound every bit as important to the cinema experience as vision (and great popcorn, don’t forget great popcorn), it’s good news that Solo: A Star Wars Story will be one of the first films to be presented in Dolby Cinema. The Hollywood Reporter took a closer look at this exciting new audio system.

Avengers: Infinity War and Solo: A Star Wars Story are among a string of upcoming Disney titles that will be offered in Dolby Cinema — meaning with both Dolby Vision HDR images and Dolby Atmos immersive sound in supported theaters.

“Having worked with Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos in the past, I’m very excited to use these technologies to immerse and envelop audiences into the Star Wars galaxy with Solo: A Star Wars Story,” said Solo director Ron Howard in a released statement. “These tools really allow filmmakers to help put audiences in the story like never before.”
