THUNDER BAY – The silver screen will light up once again next Friday in Thunder Bay.
A Cineplex spokesperson confirmed SilverCity will be back in business in the city, offering up highly anticipated summer blockbusters including Black Widow, F9 the Fast Saga and Space Jam: A New Legacy.
“Our team has been waiting for this day and are thrilled that next week we will finally be able to reopen our doors in Ontario,” said Ellis Jacob, Cineplex president and CEO, in a release.
“We can now enjoy movies the way that they’re meant to be seen, with Cineplex providing the escape of the big screen and big sound that we have all been missing for so long.”
Other movies that could be on tap for re-opening weekend include The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It, A Quiet Place Part II, Escape Room: Tournament of Champions and The Boss Baby: Family Business.
Under provincial rules, theatres can open to 50 per cent capacity, with a maximum of 1,000 people in the building at one time.
Enhanced cleaning and reduced capacity inside individual theatres will also be in place.
Masks will also be required when not eating or drinking.
The exact list of movies being offered and show times will be available on the Cineplex website.
