The Los Angeles City Council has voted to require proof of vaccination at movie theaters, as well as other venues, beginning next month.
Deadline reports that the council voted 11-2 to pass the ordinance, which requires COVID-19 vaccinations to enter indoor movie theaters, concerts, sporting events, restaurants, bars, gyms, and more. The new rule will take effect beginning November 6. People who fail to follow the requirement could face thousands in fines upon multiple infractions. This new ordinance in Los Angeles is similar to those seen in New York and San Francisco.
Speaking about the vote, LA City Council President Nury Martinez said, "No one will force you to get a vaccine, but if you decide not to get one, there are certain things you will not be able to do.”
The box office is starting to rebound from the COVID-19 pandemic. The latest James Bond film, No Time to Die, has not premiered in North America yet, but it already made nearly $120 million in its international debut. This includes the highest single-day earnings in the U.K. and Ireland, with $11.4 million on Saturday.
In the U.S., Venom: Let There Be Carnage set a pandemic-era record with a $90 million domestic box office debut. This beat Black Widow's $80 million from earlier this year.
Other, individual events are also requiring proof of vaccination. The Call of Duty Championship League in August was one of the first esports event to require vaccination against COVID-19. PAX West 2021 also required vaccinations or negative tests. Meanwhile, Evo's in-person fighting game tournament was canceled entirely this year due to the rising threat of the Delta variant of COVID-19.
