IMDb Photo Downloader: All the Pictures of a Film or a Person
Download images from IMDb in bulk: the stills, posters and event photos of a film, a series or a person, or a whole image gallery, from one address. Each picture arrives at its original size, named with its caption on IMDb, and keeps the address of its page there.

How to Download Images from IMDb
IMDb has no download button, and its viewer lays a layer over each picture, so the right-click menu offers no “Save image as”. For all the pictures of a film, a series or a person at their original size, three steps:
One-time setup: download NeoDownloader and install it. It is available for Windows, Mac and Linux. The steps below are what you repeat each time.

Copy an IMDb Address
In your browser, open the film, series, person or image gallery you want on IMDb and copy the address from the address bar. Any of its pages will do: the photos, the videos or a single photo.

On the last step, check the destination folder. Below, the wizard shows IMDb's note on the use of its data, with a link to it: tick “I have read this” and click Create project. The pictures start arriving at once, in a folder named after the film or the person.
Download IMDb Photos and Posters at Original Size
NeoDownloader downloads each picture as it was uploaded to IMDb, not the copy IMDb's viewer resizes for the screen. Posters, stills and photos from premieres and events all come down this way.
A picture is only as large as it was uploaded: some are a few hundred pixels wide, others several thousand. NeoDownloader takes the original and does not enlarge it.
No IMDb account is needed: pictures and videos download without signing in.
Download a Whole IMDb Film, Person or Gallery
- A film or a series - imdb.com/title/tt…: its pictures and videos
- A person - imdb.com/name/nm…: their pictures and videos
- An image gallery - imdb.com/gallery/rg…
- A film's photos or videos page - …/mediaindex, …/videogallery: the whole film
- A single photo - …/mediaviewer/rm…: the whole film, person or gallery it belongs to
IMDb Image Downloader Features
Films, series, people and galleries, each in one run
Stills, Posters and Event Photos
Download the pictures IMDb holds for a film, a series or a person, however many pages its photo gallery runs to. An image gallery comes down whole.
Trailers and Clips Too
With “Download videos” on, a film's or a person's trailers and clips come down as MP4 files, in the best quality IMDb offers for each. Turn “Download images” off to get the videos alone.
Every Photo Knows Its Page
A picture's file name is its IMDb caption - who is in the shot and from which film. Its IMDb page goes into the file's properties as “Found on”; with “Open on the site” you are back on it in one click.
Only What Is New
Open the project later and run it: only the pictures and videos IMDb has gained since are fetched.
IMDb Downloader FAQ
Is there a free IMDb image downloader?
Yes. There is nothing to pay to install NeoDownloader, and it saves the stills, posters and event photos IMDb keeps for a film, a series or a person. The free version has no time limit; Premium lifts its limits on the number of files per project.
How do I download images from IMDb?
IMDb gives you no download button. Take the address of the film, the person or the gallery, put it into “New project”, and you get the pictures in a folder at the size they were uploaded at.
Can I download IMDb posters?
Yes. A film's posters are among its pictures on IMDb: paste the film's address, and they come down at their original size together with its stills.
Can I download photos from IMDb in full size?
Yes. NeoDownloader saves each picture as it was uploaded to IMDb, not the copy IMDb's viewer resizes for the screen. A picture uploaded small stays small: nothing is enlarged.
Can I download IMDb trailers and videos?
Yes, from the address of a film or a person: NeoDownloader takes their trailers and clips together, as MP4 files. The address of a single video on its own is not taken, and of a very long list of clips IMDb gives out only the first part.
Do I need an IMDb account?
No. Pictures and videos download from IMDb without signing in.
Can I download an IMDb list or chart?
No. NeoDownloader takes a film or a series, a person or an image gallery, and a list or a chart such as the Top 250 is none of these. Paste the addresses of the films you want instead, one per line: they download together, into one project.
Why does the wizard ask me to tick “I have read this”?
IMDb states conditions for the use of its data. NeoDownloader puts its note, with a link to IMDb's page about it, in front of you before the project is created, and the tick says you have seen it.
Will it download the same pictures again next time?
No. The project knows what it has already saved and adds only new pictures and videos.
