How IMAX Is Bringing Its Original Movie Content To The World With AI

IMAX has always been synonymous with the most immersive cinematic experiences on the planet. Now, in collaboration with CAMB.AI, IMAX is taking its acclaimed original documentary content to global audiences — in their own languages — using AI-powered dubbing that preserves the emotion, tone, and authenticity of the original.

Localizing premium documentary content has historically been slow and costly, often limiting how widely a film can travel. Traditional dubbing pipelines require studios, voice actors, and weeks of production per language. For a library of original films, scaling this across dozens of languages was simply impractical.

With CAMB.AI's MARS and BOLI models, IMAX can now dub its original content into over 140 languages while retaining the narrator's vocal identity and emotional delivery — the qualities that make documentary storytelling resonate. What once took weeks per language now takes a fraction of the time, opening IMAX's catalogue to audiences who were previously excluded by language.

This collaboration reflects a shared belief that the world's best content should be accessible to everyone, everywhere — without compromising the artistry of the original work.
