AMC did report some good news on Tuesday, as the theater chain is taking over a couple of prime locations from Arclight theaters. The two new theaters will be in San Diego and Washington DC, and is likely a part of the company’s long-term plan of making it through the ongoing pandemic. The company continues to take over leases of theater complexes that have closed down during the pandemic, and is reportedly still seeking out additional locations to add to its 950 global locations.
