The historic Grauman`s Chinese Theater, located in the heart of Hollywood, is undergoing reorganization. According to the LA Times, it will host one of the world's largest and third largest IMAX halls in the United States.

It will seat 986 viewers, and its screen will exceed 30 meters. Thus, the new IMAX will be only marginally smaller than the largest halls in San Francisco and New York.

Recall that the cinema was built in 1927 by the famous impresario Sid Grauman. It traditionally hosts the loudest premieres and various ceremonies. Several times Grauman's Chinese Theater became the venue for the Oscars.

In early 2013, the Chinese concern TCL acquired the right to change the sign for $ 5 million.
