AMC Boss Adam Aron said he was kicking the tires of Arclight Cinemas’ locations after they went out of business — and he meant it. Word is that the No. 1 exhibitor is close to absorbing the leases for the multiplexes at Caruso Properties’ The Grove in Los Angeles and Americana in Glendale, CA. These
We all know the stereotype of the long-suffering sitcom wife, right? She’s way too hot for her proudly immature husband, and she quietly stays in the background while he hogs the spotlight? Well, AMC’s new dramedy Kevin Can F**k Himself — premiering Sunday, June 20 at 9/8c — aims to blow up that stereotype, promising
Major movie theater circuits AMC, Regal Cinemas and Cinemark have adjusted their policies on face masks, allowing those who have been vaccinated against Covid-19 to not have to wear them.

On Wednesday morning, studio executives and exhibitors will rally at AMC’s Century City 15 multiplex to cheer the return of movie theaters that had been closed by the pandemic. “The Big Screen Is Back,” they’ll declare. Glad to hear it. That’s great, as far as it goes. But those movers and shakers should probably charter
Great news for AMC which threw open the doors to its Century City and Burbank locations Monday after a year of being shutdown due to Covid restrictions: The No. 1 circuit’s Burbank location sold out 22 of its 32 showtimes, while Century City sold out 18 of its 30 showtimes yesterday. Remember, capacity is capped
EXCLUSIVE: “That’s the first time I’ve seen the movie in a movie theater; I get chills,” beamed filmmaker Eddie Huang tonight watching his feature directorial Boogie at the AMC Century City 15. “My mother is in that first scene, and I just had to see how it looks,” he gushed. The director and writer of the
This list will be updating: Finally, the movie capital of the world can show movies again in theaters after a year’s shutdown of all exhibition due to the pandemic.

It’s looking like movie theaters will be given the opportunity to finally reopen here in Los Angeles County as early as next week.

Can cinemas play day-and-date releases from Warner Bros after continually refusing to show Netflix films? The big circuits have to be feeling really stupid now: If they had only made a deal with Netflix last year on Martin Scorsese’s The Irishman at a 45-day window instead of emphatically rejecting one, perhaps this looming apocalypse brought on
Refresh for more: AMC Boss Adam Aron has weighed on WarnerMedia’s news about debuting its entire 2021 theatrical release slate simultaneously on HBO Max and he isn’t a happy camper. Wonder Woman 1984 as one-off was fine. However, the chain expects to fight hard when it comes to terms. Here’s what Aron had to say:
Universal has just inked another multi-year shortened theatrical window/PVOD share deal, this time with Canada’s biggest exhibitor, Cineplex. The deal comes on the heels of Uni’s recent pact with No. 3 U.S. chain Cinemark. To date, Cineplex becomes the third exhibitor to agree to Uni’s truncated theatrical window terms since AMC first signed on back
It should come as no surprise to hear that Cinemark and Universal have hammered out their own truncated theatrical window and PVOD share deal in the wake of the one which AMC inked with the Hollywood major studio at the end of July. Cinemark CEO Mark Zoradi, a former President at the Walt Disney Motion
Not to send everyone screaming for the exits, but it wouldn’t be out of the question if Warner Bros. moves Wonder Woman 1984 off its Christmas Day global theatrical release. Facts are facts whether former Vice President Joe Biden takes the U.S. Presidency tomorrow night or if President Donald Trump continues: New York City and Los
Despite the firm response earlier this month from the National Association of Theatre Owners of California/Nevada to not reopen cinemas in San Francisco county given its concession ban, major circuits like Cinemark and AMC have taken an about face this week. Now opening a movie theater without the means of selling popcorn and soda is
Thanks, but no thanks, San Francisco Mayor London Breed. While San Francisco County gave the go-ahead for movie theaters to reopen today, members of the National Association of Theatre Owners of California/Nevada have agreed unanimously to remain closed in the City by the Bay.

San Francisco Mayor London N. Breed and county officials finally gave the go-ahead for movie theaters to reopen on Oct. 7, despite the fact that California state health officials said it was OK to do so weeks ago.

When I mentioned to a colleague that I’d just watched the premiere of AMC’s second spinoff of The Walking Dead, World Beyond, he asked just one question: “Do you think there’s an audience for it?” And I had to admit, I do. The series, which follows teenage sisters Iris (Aliyah Royale) and Hope (Alexa Mansour)
In the wake of the announced reopening of OC earlier this week, AMC is officially throwing the doors open to four locations in the greater Los Angeles area this weekend, followed by the AMC Woodbridge 5 on Sept. 18. The AMC Anaheim GardenWalk 6, AMC Orange 30, and AMC Tustin 14 will open on Friday,
When I was a kid growing up in Brattleboro, VT, I had to wait months for a big Hollywood movie to come to town. One of the big year-end holiday movies of 1980 was Paramount’s Robin Williams pic Popeye, but it didn’t come to my town’s Art-Deco historical landmark theater, the Latchis until Easter weekend.
At first it looked like AMC would be delayed with reopening their cinemas in New Jersey given the state’s last minute OK this week, and now the biggest exhibitor in the world will have two locations ready to go for Christopher Nolan’s time thriller noir this Friday, Sept 4: AMC Jersey Gardens 20 and AMC
As Deadline’s Tom Tapp reported last week, Los Angeles County isn’t quite ready to join other parts of California and the nation at large in allowing movie theaters to reopen, even with restrictions. So the coronavirus-beset movie capital remains closed to indoor movies. Which isn’t entirely bad. It buys some time, at least, to figure
On today’s earnings call for the No. 1 financially challenged exhibitor AMC, CEO Adam Aron took the high road in not damning Disney for their recent seisimic-shifting choice to take Mulan to Disney+ instead of theaters where the streaming service is available. “You might thing I’m disappointed that Mulan is moving, but AMC has no bigger friend
Cinemark CEO Mark Zoradi weighed in this morning on all the noise that Universal and AMC stirred up last week with their plan to crunch the theatrical window to 17 days. “Consistent with our past practices, Cinemark does not comment on the actions of our competitors.
