That site was previously home to Studio Movie Grill, which opened in late 2019 — just before the pandemic hit. That chain later filed for bankruptcy and could not strike a new lease to reopen in Charlotte.
“The Charlotte market is fast growing and very attractive for a lot of reasons, but we were also opportunistic in that this was a brand new theatre,” says Traci Hoey, vice president of marketing for Cinergy Entertainment.
