Exciting news for movie lovers! AMC Entertainment is set to revolutionize the cinematic experience by opening 65 state-of-the-art ScreenX and 4DX auditoriums globally, marking a significant expansion, especially in the U.S.

This game-changing initiative is part of a newly formed partnership with CJ 4DPlex, a well-known cinema system developer based in Seoul. Although the financial details of the deal remain undisclosed, the implications are vast.

This groundbreaking collaboration represents the first global alliance between AMC and CJ 4DPlex, encompassing 40 4DX auditoriums and 25 ScreenX locations specifically in the U.S. and Europe.

Moviegoers can expect the initial ScreenX auditoriums to open their doors this summer, followed by the much-anticipated 4DX installations, which are slated for a fall launching. The complete rollout is projected to conclude by 2027, setting AMC apart as a frontrunner in immersive cinema technology.

But what exactly can audiences anticipate? ScreenX is known for its unique multi-projector system designed to create an incredible 270-degree panoramic viewing experience that envelops audiences in the film, all showcased across three distinct cinema screens.

The new auditoriums will be equipped with top-of-the-line Barco laser projectors, delivering stunning visuals, immersive audio experiences, and plush recliner seating for ultimate comfort.

As for the 4DX experience, think beyond the traditional movie viewing! 4DX offers a thrilling sensory experience with motion-based seats that move in sync with the film, as well as effects like wind, lightning, scents, and more—transforming how audiences engage with their favorite stories.

Don Savant, CEO of CJ 4DPlex America, emphasized the significance of this partnership stating, "This collaboration allows us to showcase our largest film slate ever for both ScreenX and 4DX while simultaneously reinforcing our connections with filmmakers and major studios."

Upcoming blockbusters expected in these innovative formats include a highly anticipated lineup from top studios: Warner Bros.’ “A Minecraft Movie,” Marvel’s “Thunderbolts,” and Sony’s “28 Years Later,” to name a few.

Adding to this, Adam Aron, AMC’s chairman and CEO, expressed his enthusiasm: “This partnership marks a major step forward in our commitment to delivering the most immersive, cutting-edge experiences to our millions of guests worldwide.

As the entertainment landscape evolves, AMC continues to lead the industry by integrating innovative technologies that redefine the movie experience.”

With this deal, CJ 4DPlex will expand its global reach, now totaling approximately 1,200 screens, including 430 ScreenX and 780 4DX auditoriums.

CEO Jun Bang expressed his excitement for joining forces with the world’s largest exhibitor, calling it one of the largest deals in the company’s history.

Don’t miss out on this cinematic revolution! AMC's new ScreenX and 4DX auditoriums are set to change the way we experience films, blending storytelling with unparalleled sensory engagement. Movie nights will never be the same again!
