Cinemark Theatres released a new video that shows an employee sanitizing theater seats ahead of a new showing.

  • The video shows an employee — identified as “Marc” at the West Plano, Texas, location — sanitizing the auditorium between showings.
  • Cinemark said: “Thank you Marc at our West Plano, TX theatre for sanitizing our auditorium seats before each movie. We appreciate you!”

What about masks?

  • Cinemark said it won’t require guests to wear masks when they return to see movies, as I reported for the Deseret News.
  • Cinemark representative told TheWrap that CEO Mark Zoradi said guests won’t have to wear masks.
  • Zoradi said in a conference call: “We have been intensely focused in developing enhanced health and safety protocols, understanding that these factors will weigh heavily on the confidence and peace of mind of our employees, guests and community as we reopen our theaters. (We will be) requiring all employees to wear face masks and encouraging guests to do the same.”
