Cineworld is facing a fresh court battle over unpaid rents.
The world’s second-biggest cinema chain is facing a £1m legal claim rom Marina Developments ltd, the owner of its multiplex in Southampton.
The landlord, owned by Baron Iliffe and his family’s Yattendon Group, claims that Cineworld has failed to pay rent and other charges since March last year.
Last year Cineworld backed away from using a CVA to cut its rent debts.
It has already been ordered to pay rent to AEW UK Reit after demanding holidays since the start of the pandemic.
