El Capitan Theatre

The El Capitan Theatre is an exceptional movie theater bought, sold and renovated many times over. The original architects Morgan, Walls, and Clements originally designed the building in 1926, and were responsible for many iconic buildings throughout the city of Los Angeles, California. Such as the former Mole-Richardson building on La Brea Ave., which has been demolished for the construction of luxury apartments. The entrepreneurs behind the vision for El Capitan Theatre were none other than Charles E. Toberman and Sid Grauman of Grauman’s Chinese Theater  and Grauman’s Egyptian Theatre. Now owned and operated by The Walt Disney Company, with many world premier motion pictures held at the El Capitan for Marvel Studios, just as the superhero tends to soar at the box office.
