The screens with B&B Theatres are set to be the first in the U.S. outside of the American west coast.

Speaking of the implementation of this groundbreaking technology, B&B Theatres President Bob Bagby said, “Our guests will be blown away by the immersive experience of ScreenX!  I can’t wait to showcase this in our new flagship theatre in my hometown of Liberty”.

ScreenX is the world’s first multi-projection theatre technology, created in 2012 by CJ CGV, part of CJ Group, to enhance the movie environment by allowing moviegoers to go beyond the frame of the traditional movie screen.

“ScreenX coupled with our B&B Grand Screen will create the most immersive movie-going experience imaginable. This breaks barriers into a new realm of cinema presentation and we are so excited to be the largest ScreenX system in the world said Executive Vice President Brock Bagby.

B&B Theatres is a perfect partner for us to bring our ScreenX technology to more places in the U.S.,” said Byung Hwan Choi, CEO of CJ 4DPLEX. “We strive to be in every state and every city, and working with excellent partners like B&B Theatres is how we will complete our dream.”
