STER-KINEKOR RELEASES GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY IN IMAX® 3D AT GATEWAY AND NEW THEATRE AT THE GROVE MALL

Watch this new action-packed Marvel adventure in IMAX® 3D 

Get ready to shoot for the stars when the epic space-adventure, Guardians of the Galaxy, blasts its way across the impressive Ster-Kinekor IMAX® screens in August. All the action happens at the IMAX® theatre at Ster-Kinekor Gateway in Durban and the recently-opened IMAX theatre at Ster-Kinekor The Grove Mall in Pretoria East, from Friday, 01 August.

From the Disney-owned Marvel Studios that brought us the global blockbuster franchises of Iron Man, Thor, Captain America andThe Avengers, comes a brand new superhero-type movie, Guardians of the Galaxy, featuring a brand new team.

The ‘Guardians’, who are mostly unknown to each other, are to be incarcerated in an elaborate space prison known as the Kyln. There is Rocket (voiced by Bradley Cooper), a gun-toting raccoon and the diminutive result of ‘experiments on a lower life form’; Groot (Vin Diesel), a tree-like humanoid; Gamora (Zöe Saldana), the enigmatic, cruel-eyed green humanoid assassin who finds herself targeted for past crimes by furious inmates of the Kyln; and the revenge-driven Drax the Destroyer (Dave Bautista), a tattooed space brute. Peter Quill, aka Star Lord (Chris Pratt), is the only human among them!

Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy expands the Marvel Cinematic Universe into the cosmos, as brash adventurer Peter Quill finds himself the object of an unrelenting bounty hunt. This, after stealing a mysterious orb coveted by Ronan the Accuser (Lee Pace), a powerful villain with ambitions that threaten the entire universe.

To evade the ever-persistent Ronan, Quill is forced into an uneasy truce with the quartet of disparate misfits, the Guardians: Rocket, Groot, Gamora and Drax the Destroyer. However, when Quill discovers the true power of the orb and the menace it poses to the cosmos, he must do his best to rally his ragtag rivals for a last, desperate stand--with the galaxy's fate in the balance.

Directed by James Gunn, the multi-talented cast also includes Glenn Close, Josh Brolin and Karen Gillan, among others.
