(WXYZ) — The highly-anticipated premiere of “The Odyssey” is officially here, with showtimes starting Thursday across metro Detroit.

The epic, directed by Christopher Nolan, was shot entirely with IMAX cameras, the first film to be shot with them. It will be available to watch in a variety of formats in the area and across the state.

On the website for the film, it lists all of the premium format options and where you can find them. Check out the details below.

IMAX 70mm

This is the premiere format to watch the film, presented in IMAX’s 1.43:1 expanded aspect ratio, according to the website.

“It is the largest and highest-resolution format available and gives you an unparalleled sense of immersion as the image fills IMAX’s signature floor-to-ceiling screen,” the website reads.

Across the country, there are only a 30 theatres that are capable of playing IMAX 70mm, and only one in Michigan. To see the film in that format, you’ll have to go to Celebration! Cinema in Grand Rapids.

IMAX

As we’ve said, “The Odyssey” is the first feature film shot entirely on IMAX cameras. “The film was shot and designed to be experienced on the biggest screen possible, and IMAX delivers on this,” star Anne Hathaway said.

It comes in the 1.90:1 expanded aspect ratio, filling your entire field of vision.

Staying safe during extreme heat

What you can do:

Stay cool

• Limit outdoor activities, especially during the hottest part of the day.
• Spend time in air-conditioned buildings whenever possible such as libraries, shopping centers, or community centers.
• If you have an air conditioner, make sure it is installed and working properly.
• Wear lightweight, light-colored, loose-fitting clothing.
• Take cool showers or baths, or use cool, wet towels to lower body temperature.
• Fans may provide comfort but should not be relied upon as the primary cooling method during extreme heat.

Stay hydrated

• Drink water regularly, even if you do not feel thirsty.
• Avoid alcohol and excessive caffeine, which can contribute to dehydration.
• Encourage children, older adults, and others at higher risk to drink fluids throughout the day.

Protect yourself and others

• Never leave children, older adults, or pets unattended in vehicles. Temperatures inside a parked vehicle can become deadly within minutes.
• Check on older neighbors, family members, and others who may need assistance staying cool.
• Many public cooling sites are located along Milwaukee County Transit System (MCTS) routes. Visit RideMCTS.com for transit information.

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Central Indiana is bracing for a prolonged stretch of intense heat as a strong ridge of high pressure becomes firmly established over the region. High temperatures are expected to climb into the low to mid-90s through Thursday, while heat index values — the combination of heat and humidity — will reach between 100 and 105 degrees each afternoon.

Today Through Thursday: Sustained Heat

A well-entrenched upper-level ridge will maintain hot, dry conditions through Thursday. Daytime heating coupled with suppressed atmospheric mixing will keep dew points elevated, and thus heat indices high, especially during peak afternoon hours between noon and 6 p.m.

Storm chances during this period are expected to remain very low as the stable, dry air mass suppresses convective development.

Late Week: Transition and Storm Chances

The heat will begin to subside by the end of the workweek as the high-pressure ridge weakens and shifts eastward. This opens the door for increased moisture return and the development of scattered showers and thunderstorms, particularly Friday and Saturday afternoons.

Models currently show some variation on the timing and extent of this moisture return, so forecasts may adjust as the weekend approaches.

Residual scattered storms will be possible into Sunday and Monday, but the main story shifts away from oppressive heat to more typical summer storm activity.
