I Can Only Imagine Preview Screening in VMAX

I Can Only Imagine features an all-star cast of Golden-Globe® nominee Dennis Quaid, Oscar®-winner Cloris Leachman, platinum-selling country music legend Trace Adkins, author and actress Priscilla Shirer and Broadway’s J. Michael Finley (“Les Miserables”).

The film brings to life the true story behind the song of ultimate hope, “I Can Only Imagine.” A transformed relationship with his troubled father inspired Bart Millard, the lead singer of the Christian band MercyMe, to write what is now the most-played radio single in Christian music history. 

The story beautifully illustrates that nobody is ever too far from God’s love -- or too far from an eternal home in Heaven.It’s the song that brings ultimate hope to so many … often in the midst of life’s most challenging moments. Amazingly, the song was written in mere minutes by MercyMe lead singer Bart Millard. In reality, those lyrics took a lifetime to craft.

Although he found faith at a young age, life wasn’t easy for Bart. He leaned into an active imagination and used his love of music as an escape from a troubled home life. As he grew older, Bart turned to football in hopes of somehow connecting with his abusive father. But a career-ending injury—combined with the vision of a teacher who saw unlimited potential—set Bart on a musical pathway.

Chasing a dream while running from broken relationships with his father and Shannon, his childhood sweetheart, Bart hits the road in an old, decrepit tour bus with his new band MercyMe—named for his grandmother’s favorite expression. With the guidance of a grizzled music-industry insider, the band begins a journey none of them could ever have imagined.
