One of Hollywood’s most iconic theaters, the Cinerama Dome at the former ArcLight Hollywood complex, could be making a comeback.<\/p>\n

Deadline<\/a> reported Wednesday that sources told the entertainment news outlet that Sony Pictures Entertainment is in talks with the Robertson Property Group on a lease agreement to reopen the historic venue.<\/p>\n

“This is really, really, really big movie news for movie-loving Angelenos,” Scott “Movie” Mantz said on the KTLA Morning News on Wednesday. “The Dome, the ArcLight Hollywood, was the center of the moviegoing universe for at least two decades.”<\/p>\n

The historic theater closed during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. In 2021, Pacific Theatres announced that the ArcLight and Pacific theater locations would remain permanently closed, even as other movie theaters began reopening.<\/p>\n

“When that closed and never reopened, it was a big void,” Mantz said.<\/p>\n

According to Deadline’s sources, Sony-owned Alamo Drafthouse could play a role in operating the Cinerama Dome. However, details of any lease agreement and a potential reopening date are still being worked out.<\/p>\n

“Now, there have been false starts with all this, but it sounds like it could actually be happening,” Mantz said.<\/p>\n
