For over a century dinosaurs have inspired and thrilled audiences, commanding blockbuster status in museums and at the box office. But among them towers a king—a tyrant lizard king.
With leaps in CGI wizardry and revelations in tyrannosaur paleontology from the past twenty-five years, the time has come to revisit rex in the world's prestigious museum cinemas, from rexling to teen to fightin’ prime.
Chronicling a remarkable discovery in the badlands of Hell Creek in the summer of 2023, this immersive giant screen film explores the life and times of the Greatest Of All Tyrants - the GOAT.

Behold, the G.O.A.T! That's “Greatest Of All Tyrants,” Tyrannosaurus rex, a.k.a. “T. rex.” This giant screen film explores how new discoveries shape our current understanding of one of the most fearsome dinosaurs to walk the Earth. This ultimate predator is steeped in myth, mystery, and misinformation. T. rex, the movie, will shed light on paleontologists' latest understanding of its titular star. From digging T. rex fossils in the Hell Creek Badlands to stepping back in time, via CGI, Tyrannosaurus rex will come to life on the planetarium dome and give insight to the origins and life of this so-called “king of the tyrant lizards” on the prehistoric continent of Laramidia.
