T. Rex

Screening September 1, 2025 – August 31, 2026

Meet the GOAT — the Greatest of All Tyrants.

For more than a hundred years, dinosaurs have captivated audiences in museums and at the box office, with one towering above the rest — the Tyrannosaurus rex. Follow the remarkable true story of three kids who discovered a teenage T. rex fossil, a find that made international headlines and helped scientists fill in gaps in T. rex’s life story.

Narrated by Sam Neill (Jurassic Park), this immersive 3D film explores the life of the Tyrannosaurus rex while highlighting famous specimens, landmark discoveries, and the evolving interplay between speculation and scientific evidence. Advances in CGI wizardry and breakthroughs in tyrannosaur paleontology over the past 25 years inform this fresh look at the “king,” from its early years to its prime. Created in collaboration with top tyrannosaur scientists, a coalition of natural history institutions, and pioneering paleo and visual effects artists, experience the most dazzling and accurate giant screen documentary ever made on this legendary predator — and its carnivorous Cretaceous cousins.
