'ODEON confirms it will be closing its Covent Garden and Surrey Quays cinemas, due to redevelopment plans taking place at both sites by the respective landlords,' said the cinema chain in a statement.
The venue is currently subject to contentious plans to create a basement theatre and hotel within the building, with preservation of the famous exterior frieze and a six-storey extension.
ODEON Surrey Quays is a casualty of the Canada Water regeneration project, transforming into a Tesco Extra and new homes, with staff to be relocated to other cinemas.
'Supporting our local cinema teams is our number one priority,' said ODEON, aiming to secure jobs for affected staff in other local cinema locations.
