Netflix announced on Monday that it has reached a lease agreement to reopen New York’s iconic Paris Theatre.
The Paris, New York’s last single-screen theater, was shuttered earlier this year and re-opened earlier this month by Netflix for the streaming platform’s Oscar hopeful “Marriage Story.” Now Netflix will keep the theater open and plans to use it for special events, screenings and theatrical releases of its films. Terms of the lease were not disclosed.
“After 71 years, the Paris Theatre has an enduring legacy, and remains the destination for a one-of-a kind movie-going experience,” Netflix Chief Content Officer Ted Sarandos said in a statement. “We are incredibly proud to preserve this historic New York institution so it can continue to be a cinematic home for film lovers.”
