Marvel will be showing 17 minutes of IMAX 3D footage from Guardians of the Galaxy at 150 IMAX theaters across the U.S. on July 7. Find out how to get a chance to see an early screening of the movie’s footage, along with a limited edition poster.

Guardians director James Gunn announces that he’s, “Re-mastered some of our epic sequences into the IMAX 3D format, taking the scope and scale to new heights while creating a truly immersive, cinematic experience that will take you further into the Marvel Universe than ever before.”

According to the press release, this will be the first time that Marvel has ever done an early screener such as this and we imagine Marvel is hoping to create some mega-buzz for their new film which already has fans incredibly excited about the intergalactic gang of misfits.

Check out the limited edition Guardians of the Galaxy poster below which will be given to those who attend the free, early screeners:

The tickets will be available on a first come, first serve basis, so be sure to get your tickets as soon as they’re available on Guardians of the Galaxy’s official Facebook page. Both U.S. and Canadian residents can go to the event.

Marvel is ramping up its promotion for Guardians of the Galaxy as it heads closer to its world premiere on August 1. We recently found out that fan-favorite Nathan Fillion will have a cameo in Guardians and you won’t believe who he’ll be playing.

Marvel recently released some new looks at Guardians of the Galaxy’s villains, which are Karen Gillan as Nebula and Lee Pace as Ronan The Accuser. The two new posters featured the villains on one and the heroes on the other and gave us our first great shot of Lee Pace as Ronan.

Guardians of the Galaxy’s recent trailer gave us some great looks at Chris Pratt and Zoe Saldana, and more importantly, showed us quite a bit more of Bradley Cooper voicing Rocket Raccoon. It looks as though he’ll be quite talkative in the film.

Guardians of the Galaxy’s release date is set for August 1, 2014. Featuring an intergalactic group of Guardians, led by Star-Lord, they make a desperate stand to save the galaxy.

Two-time Academy Award nominee Bradley Cooper voices the machine-gun-wielding Rocket Raccoon and is joined by Vin Diesel as the tree-like Groot, with Zoe Saldana, Chris Pratt, Karen Gillan and Dave Bautista filling out the leading roles.
