Alamo Drafthouse Cinema announced Wednesday that it will check the temperatures of customers in many of its locations. The circuit operates 41 cinemas, including one in downtown Los Angeles.
The safety measure is among numerous precautions the maverick Texas-based theater chain will take when reopening next month amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
Alamo had previously announced that patrons will be required to wear face masks except when eating or drinking concessions. Alamo didn't provide specific dates, but said it will begin the reopening process early next month.
