As of today visit, the new refreshment stand is complete on the main floor, will be opening soon.
According to management, the new IMAX theatre will be in theatre 23 opening late this year, the house is currently still running regular digital films.
Also, Regal has no plans to replace the Edwards seating in theatres 4, 7, 8, 9 and 20. Guess their must be a shortage in ordering recliner seating.
This theatre just got Laser at AMC, I’m actually surprised they installed it her, this theatre is very rarely crowded even on the weekend. Most of the Houston megaplexes also got installed Laser at AMC in the last month.
For this theatre to be profitable, they should install recliners at this complex.
Regal Cinemas and IMAX Expand Partnership With Four New Marquee Locations Across Los Angeles, Houston, and Washington, DC Areas
New Agreement Includes Bringing IMAX 70mm Film to Iconic L.A. LIVE Entertainment Complex
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. & NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–May 19, 2025– Regal Cinemas and IMAX (NYSE: IMAX) today announced an expansion of their longstanding partnership with an agreement for four new IMAX® with Laser locations in the United States’ biggest metropolitan areas. Included in the agreement, Regal will open a new IMAX theatre at the iconic L.A. LIVE entertainment complex in Downtown Los Angeles, with an IMAX 70mm film projector and 80-foot screen that will be among the largest in the city.
The agreement will also bring new IMAX locations to three of IMAX’s highest grossing metropolitan areas in the country, including Regal Greenway Grand Palace in Downtown Houston; Regal Virginia Gateway in the Gainesville suburb of Washington, DC; and Regal Sherman Oaks in Los Angeles. Three of the four new IMAX locations are set to open this year, with the remaining location opening in 2026.
“At Regal, we are committed to providing the latest and most innovative technologies in our theatres with the overall goal of delivering the best moviegoing experience for our guests,” said Eduardo Acuna, CEO of Regal Cineworld Group. “Through our partnership with IMAX, we are able to expand on this commitment by bringing their most advanced entertainment experience to some of our top performing locations.”
“These are excellent, in many cases newly renovated locations that demonstrate Regal’s commitment to customer experience and promise to join the ranks of the most successful IMAX locations in the country,” said Rich Gelfond, CEO of IMAX. “Passionate moviegoing audiences in major metropolitan areas fuel our growth, and we’re excited to expand our partnership with Regal Cineworld and give our fans even more ways to experience it in IMAX.”
The agreement also provides for the renewal of 33 Regal IMAX locations across the U.S., and the installation of ten previously contracted upgrades to IMAX with Laser in 2025. Regal Cineworld, the parent company of Regal, is one of the largest global operators of IMAX with 132 IMAX screens out of over 640 locations worldwide.
IMAX 70mm film is the highest-resolution image capture in cinema, shot exclusively with IMAX film cameras to deliver up to 18K resolution in a single frame. Films shot using this special format are shown in IMAX 70mm film projectors, a unique system currently available in just 30 locations worldwide. Recent films shot with IMAX film cameras and presented in IMAX 70mm include “Oppenheimer,” “Sinners,” and the 10-year anniversary re-release of “Interstellar.” Next year’s “The Odyssey,” currently being shot with IMAX film cameras by Academy-Award winning director Christopher Nolan, will be released in IMAX 70mm locations in July 2026.
All the new locations will be equipped with IMAX with Laser, IMAX’s most advanced entertainment experience. Immersive by design, IMAX with Laser has been developed from the ground-up to deliver crystal clear, lifelike images and precision audio for a moviegoing experience unlike anything else. The experience is set apart by a ground-breaking 4k laser projection system that features a new optical engine, custom designed lenses, and a suite of proprietary technology that delivers brighter images with increased resolution, deeper contrast, and the widest range of colors exclusively to IMAX screens.

I’m glad this theatre getting IMAX Regal Cinemas and IMAX Expand Partnership With Four New Marquee Locations Across Los Angeles, Houston, and Washington, DC Areas New Agreement Includes Bringing IMAX 70mm Film to Iconic L.A. LIVE Entertainment Complex
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. & NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–May 19, 2025– Regal Cinemas and IMAX (NYSE: IMAX) today announced an expansion of their longstanding partnership with an agreement for four new IMAX® with Laser locations in the United States’ biggest metropolitan areas. Included in the agreement, Regal will open a new IMAX theatre at the iconic L.A. LIVE entertainment complex in Downtown Los Angeles, with an IMAX 70mm film projector and 80-foot screen that will be among the largest in the city.
The agreement will also bring new IMAX locations to three of IMAX’s highest grossing metropolitan areas in the country, including Regal Greenway Grand Palace in Downtown Houston; Regal Virginia Gateway in the Gainesville suburb of Washington, DC; and Regal Sherman Oaks in Los Angeles. Three of the four new IMAX locations are set to open this year, with the remaining location opening in 2026.
“At Regal, we are committed to providing the latest and most innovative technologies in our theatres with the overall goal of delivering the best moviegoing experience for our guests,” said Eduardo Acuna, CEO of Regal Cineworld Group. “Through our partnership with IMAX, we are able to expand on this commitment by bringing their most advanced entertainment experience to some of our top performing locations.”
“These are excellent, in many cases newly renovated locations that demonstrate Regal’s commitment to customer experience and promise to join the ranks of the most successful IMAX locations in the country,” said Rich Gelfond, CEO of IMAX. “Passionate moviegoing audiences in major metropolitan areas fuel our growth, and we’re excited to expand our partnership with Regal Cineworld and give our fans even more ways to experience it in IMAX.”
The agreement also provides for the renewal of 33 Regal IMAX locations across the U.S., and the installation of ten previously contracted upgrades to IMAX with Laser in 2025. Regal Cineworld, the parent company of Regal, is one of the largest global operators of IMAX with 132 IMAX screens out of over 640 locations worldwide.
IMAX 70mm film is the highest-resolution image capture in cinema, shot exclusively with IMAX film cameras to deliver up to 18K resolution in a single frame. Films shot using this special format are shown in IMAX 70mm film projectors, a unique system currently available in just 30 locations worldwide. Recent films shot with IMAX film cameras and presented in IMAX 70mm include “Oppenheimer,” “Sinners,” and the 10-year anniversary re-release of “Interstellar.” Next year’s “The Odyssey,” currently being shot with IMAX film cameras by Academy-Award winning director Christopher Nolan, will be released in IMAX 70mm locations in July 2026.
All the new locations will be equipped with IMAX with Laser, IMAX’s most advanced entertainment experience. Immersive by design, IMAX with Laser has been developed from the ground-up to deliver crystal clear, lifelike images and precision audio for a moviegoing experience unlike anything else. The experience is set apart by a ground-breaking 4k laser projection system that features a new optical engine, custom designed lenses, and a suite of proprietary technology that delivers brighter images with increased resolution, deeper contrast, and the widest range of colors exclusively to IMAX screens.
