If you missed your chance to see “Project Hail Mary” on Chattanooga’s largest movie screen, it’s your lucky day.

The heartwarming sci-fi movie starring Ryan Gosling is coming back to the Tennessee Aquarium’s IMAX theater. Fun fact: The movie was filmed with special cameras and features a sound mix designed specifically for IMAX.

Editor Sarah here: I had the privilege of seeing this movie at the IMAX theater a couple of weeks ago, and I’m still thinking about it. I laughed, I cried — it was truly one of the best movie experiences I’ve had. Trust me, it’s worth your time and a $15 ticket.

Catch it this Sunday, April 12 at 7:15 p.m., or Friday, April 17 through Monday, April 20.
