Action star Vin Diesel’s Bloodshot will be hitting the screens once again as the theatres in the US prepare to reopen from next week. Prominent theatre chain AMC has announced that the film, which had to stop its theatrical run in March due to the coronavirus pandemic, will be back in its cinema houses on August 20.

“Bloodshot released March 13th and had a 4-day theatrical run, so we”re bringing it back! See @Bloodshot starring @VinDiesel on the big screen starting 8/20 and earn double points!” AMC tweeted.

However, it is not clear how many theatres will actually be open by the time Bloodshot re-releases. Many states in the US are still in lockdown.
