Alamo Drafthouse Cinema is set to reopen six theaters that were closed in June due to a franchisee's Chapter 7 bankruptcy filing. The affected locations include five in the Dallas-Fort Worth area and one in Woodbury, Minnesota. Alamo Drafthouse CEO Michael Kustermann expressed the company's commitment to acquiring these locations and reopening them as Alamo Drafthouse-owned venues. The company also announced that all affected venue staff will be compensated for lost wages owed prior to the closures. The reopening is expected to take place this summer, following Sony's acquisition.
