AMC will offer masks to customers if they forgot one for $1. Cinemark and Regal are also not requiring masks unless state and local governments have required it. They are also looking to be fully operational by mid-July. Disney still has Mulan scheduled for release on July 24, while Warner Bros. is looking to release Christopher Nolan's Tenet on July 31.
