Regal Cinemas is reopening some of its U.S. theaters in April

Regal Cinemas will welcome back moviegoers to some of its theaters next month, its parent company Cineworld said Tuesday. The reopening of the country's second largest theater chain will mark the first time since the coronavirus pandemic began that all three major theater companies in the U.S. are in operation. 

London-based Cineworld said it would open some Regal theaters on April 2 with the limited release of "Godzilla vs. Kong." More Regals will open on April 16 when "Mortal Kombat" is set to be released, Cineworld said.  Regal locations will be able to operate profitably, as many states have now relaxed their theater capacity restrictions, Cineworld CEO Mooky Greidinger said in a statement.
