Eduardo Acuna, who’s kept a low profile since taking the top job at Cineworld last summer, took a bow in NYC this week to showcase the world’s largest 4DX auditorium at the renovated Regal Times Square.
The exhibitor partnered with CJ 4DPLEX, a cinema tech innovator of cutting-edge formats like this one that uses immersive audio, motion (the seats move, a lot), environmental effects like water, wind and lightning.

“Times Square is so perfect for these types of auditoriums. Because you have all these tourists walking around, and they’re like, ‘Oh, I’ve never seen this. We don’t have this in my hometown.’ It’s almost like going to a theme park.”
Regal parent Cineworld filed for bankruptcy in 2022, flattened by Covid and debt, exiting last August. The U.K. public company was delisted, leaving lenders in control, and they tapped Acuna as the new CEO. He previously ran the Americas operations of Mexican theater group Cinépolis.
“It’s a dream job. Regal has always been a storied company. When I joined the industry 20 years ago, Regal was the biggest [exhibitor] in the world. Everybody aspired to work at Regal. And now, being the CEO [of Cineworld], it’s just one of the most
