(WSVN) - Two major movie theater chains have announced the closure of all of their locations across the United States as they work to stop the spread of COVID-19.
In a press release, AMC Theatres said their closure started Tuesday and will last six to 12 weeks.
Regal also closed their theaters Tuesday but did not offer a time frame.
“All theaters will remain closed until further notice,” the chain said in a statement.
The closures come as many businesses try to limit social gatherings in accordance to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines.
