As we speculated a month ago, it's now been confirmed that this summer's Chicago-filmed Batman blockbuster, The Dark Knight, is returning to IMAX screens. But it's coming sooner than you think.

But there's an extra special something for those of you who score tickets to the 9 p.m. show on (re)opening night: a special IMAX screening of Batman Begins follows. Swing by the Navy Pier IMAX Theatre site for more details and the chance to buy tickets for the film as well as the special doubleheader. Tickets for all shows are $15 for adults and $13 for children.
