Your favorite TV show is getting the big-screen treatment. Game of Thrones is to become the first TV series to be screened in IMAX cinemas.


The final two episodes of Game of Thrones: Season 4 and an exclusive trailer for Season 5 will run from January 23-29 in 150 U.S. theaters, according to Variety. The episodes have been digitally remastered to fit the IMAX format.


“The cinematic brilliance and grand scope of the series is perfect for the Imax format,” said Pamela Levine, chief marketing officer at HBO. “We are always looking to provide fans with new and exciting ways to experience the show and viewing two key episodes, along with the new trailer, on such an impressive platform makes for a great event.”


The show won four Emmy Awards after leading the nominations with 19, and will compete for the Best Drama Series gong at Sunday’s Golden Globes.


The fifth season of “Thrones” premieres in April.
