A new AMC Theaters location is set to open in early 2025 at the Roosevelt Collection Shops (150 W. Roosevelt Rd.), replacing the former Showplace Icon Theater, according to the Chicago Sun-Times.
The new location will reportedly feature reclining seats, a full concessions menu, and a bar offering beer, wine, and cocktails.
The announcement follows the closure of the Showplace Icon Theater earlier this year after 15 years in operation.
The new AMC Theaters will join other anchor retailers at the Roosevelt shops including Ulta, H&M, and The Container Store.
With limited movie theaters located south of the Loop, the new AMC location is expected to fill a significant entertainment gap while bringing additional foot traffic to the South Loop neighborhood.
