Currently, the Mount Pleasant is an independent theatre. The previous owner, Famous Players, purchased the theatre as well as the Regent and the Westdale in Hamilton from the previous owner, Ontario Theatre Group. The Mount Pleasant was the corporate office for this small chain that had theatres in smaller centres that Cinplex Odeon or Famous Players did not want to touch. Famous Players only had the theatre for several years and did not need either the Mount Pleasant or the Regent, once the Silvercity at Yonge and Eglinton was built and in operation. Currently, the theatre programming is movies that have played at either the Famous Players Canada Square or the Silvercity Yonge-Eglinton. One of the few remaining neighbourhood theatres left in Toronto.
