Cineworld Delays Reopening U.K. Cinemas Following ‘Tenet’ Date Shift
A statement from Cineworld reads: “In line with recent changes to upcoming film release dates, we have made the decision to move our re-opening date to July 31. We hope that we will be able to re-open the doors of all Cineworld cinemas across the U.K. and Ireland at that time, subject to U.K. government restrictions. With the on-going pandemic, this new date remains subject to final confirmation.
“We know how much you’ve been missing the cinema and we are excited to welcome you back to Cineworld soon! With great films ahead, including ‘Mulan,’ ‘Tenet,’ ‘A Quiet Place Part II,’ ‘Wonder Woman 1984’ and many more, we can’t wait to be back.” The U.K. government confirmed last week that cinemas are allowed to reopen from July 4. AMC Theatres-owned Odeon said it would open doors that day itself, while Cineworld and Vue were set to open a week later on July 10.
Vue has yet to set new dates for their cinemas, although AMC Theatres confirmed on Monday that it was. The business said it now expects to open 450 of its more than 600 theaters on July 30, and hopes to be fully operational by early August. It’s still unclear what the chain’s new dates for Odeon’s cinemas will be.
