Since movies are typically scheduled to open on Wednesdays in France, theaters will effectively be opening their doors on June 24, even though the government has cleared them to open on June 22.
While there are still many questions regarding how France will handle the reopening, Edouard Philippe said that social distancing measures will be in place.
In some good news for the movie business, France is reopening its movie theaters next month.
Several new movies are scheduled to hit theaters in July, including Christopher Nolan’s Tenet, The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run and Disney’s Mulan.
