Los Angeles, CA: AMC Sunset 5 Closed [Apr 19, 2023]
Please update, theatre opens June 15, 2023. Grand Opening ad in photos section
I can confirm that the theatre reopened June 15, 2023. It premiered with an immersive experience for the film ASTEROID CITY - the whole lobby was filled with sets and props from the movie, and they were playing it on all 5 screens for two weeks straight.
Also, the Landmark website, Google, and Fandango all refer to it as Landmark Theatres Sunset - not Landmark Sunset 5
Please add AMC Theatre to previous operators
