The Indonesian film "Kuasa Gelap: Perjanjian Darah" is set to premiere in IMAX format, a move that actor Lukman Sardi describes as a significant personal achievement. Sardi, who has been in the film industry for nearly 48 years, stated this is his first time starring in a film selected for IMAX exhibition, having previously only appeared in films shown on regular cinema screens.

IMAX reportedly sought Indonesian content deemed suitable for its premium format, ultimately selecting "Kuasa Gelap: Perjanjian Darah" for its "exposure and story" quality. This selection makes it the sixth Indonesian film to be screened in IMAX, following titles like "Dilan 1991" and "Pengabdi Setan 2."

Sardi believes the IMAX format will enhance the viewing experience, offering audiences a more satisfying encounter with the film through improved audio and visuals. He anticipates this will be a major draw for audiences when the film is released in theaters on October 8.
