Productions must receive approval from local health officials and adhere to new safety protocols. The California Department of Public Health has now <a href=\"https:\/\/covid19.ca.gov\/pdf\/guidance-family-entertainment.pdf\">submitted a proposal<\/a> that would also allow <strong>movie theaters<\/strong> to resume operation beginning June 12th.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Highlights of the new guidelines for movie theaters in California include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Lowering occupancy to 25% (or 100 patrons)<\/li><li>Utilizing a reservation system<\/li><li>Requiring patrons to wear face coverings when not eating or drinking<\/li><li>Adjusting spaces (such as parking lots, restrooms, and theater seating) and dedicating staff to ensure best practices for physical distancing<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Movie theaters are also encouraged to &#8220;consider using disposable or washable seat covers in theaters.&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>California governor Gavin Newsom<\/strong> has yet to approve these guidelines, but if he signs off, they would come into effect no later than Friday, June 12th. Allowing movie theaters to re-open would be an additional boon to California&#8217;s TV and film industry, which has come to a near-standstill since coronavirus shutdowns swept the US in March. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The guidelines would also allow theaters to fine-tune their operations before several delayed blockbusters, such as <em>Wonder Woman 1984<\/em> and <em>Mulan<\/em>, finally release in July. Christopher Nolan&#8217;s highly anticipated espionage epic <em><a href=\"https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/2020\/04\/christopher-nolans-tenet-still-aiming-for-july-release\/\">Tenet<\/a><\/em> has also been marketed heavily for a July 12th premiere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.slashfilm.com\/california-movie-theaters-re-opening\/\">Slashfilm<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The California Department of Public Health has submitted a proposal that would allow movie theaters to resume operation beginning June 12th.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":18,"featured_media":24560,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[812,813,6,9,19],"tags":[2745,1328,2003,2746,1228,2019,1988,1327,1344],"class_list":["post-24559","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-business","category-entertainment","category-film-tv","category-movies","category-tv","tag-california","tag-christopher-nolan","tag-covid-19","tag-film-production","tag-hollywood","tag-movie-theaters","tag-mulan","tag-tenet","tag-wonder-woman-1984"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Movie Theaters in California Could Re-Open June 12th Under Proposed Guidelines - The Cultured Nerd<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/?p=24559\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Movie Theaters in California Could Re-Open June 12th Under Proposed Guidelines - The Cultured Nerd\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The California Department of Public Health has submitted a proposal that would allow movie theaters to resume operation beginning June 12th.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/?p=24559\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"The Cultured Nerd\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/theculturednerd\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2020-06-09T17:10:47+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2021-06-15T21:09:45+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/theater.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1920\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"1279\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Lyrin\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@theLyrin\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@theculturednerd\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Lyrin\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/theculturednerd.org\\\/?p=24559#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/theculturednerd.org\\\/?p=24559\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"Lyrin\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/theculturednerd.org\\\/#\\\/schema\\\/person\\\/d723cdbba257f6f30a3fc11d0ca8da8a\"},\"headline\":\"Movie Theaters in California Could Re-Open June 12th Under Proposed Guidelines\",\"datePublished\":\"2020-06-09T17:10:47+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2021-06-15T21:09:45+00:00\",\"mainEntityOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/theculturednerd.org\\\/?p=24559\"},\"wordCount\":239,\"commentCount\":0,\"image\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/theculturednerd.org\\\/?p=24559#primaryimage\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/theculturednerd.org\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2020\\\/06\\\/theater.jpg\",\"keywords\":[\"California\",\"Christopher Nolan\",\"COVID-19\",\"Film Production\",\"Hollywood\",\"Movie Theaters\",\"Mulan\",\"Tenet\",\"Wonder Woman 1984\"],\"articleSection\":[\"Business\",\"Entertainment\",\"Film &amp;
