“Iron Lung” is planned for a wide theatrical release, but exactly which theaters it will be in depends on your location and on chains that choose to book it.

Key release info

  • The movie is scheduled to hit theaters in the United States and Canada on January 30, 2026.
  • It has reportedly secured over 2,000 theaters, which qualifies as a wide release by modern standards.
  • Tickets and showtime listings are rolling out gradually on major ticketing sites as theaters confirm bookings.

How to see what theaters near you

Because the exact list changes as more venues pick it up, the most reliable way to check what theaters Iron Lung will be in near you is to:

  1. Use a showtime/tickets site (like a major movie-ticket platform) and search for “Iron Lung (2026)” with your ZIP/postal code or city.
  1. Check the film’s official channels or website, which are being updated as new theaters are added.
  1. Call or visit the websites of your local theaters (especially independents) and search their “Coming Soon” section for Iron Lung around January 30, 2026.

Why you may not see it listed yet

  • Some theaters only post showtimes 1–2 weeks before release, so listings can appear closer to opening weekend.
  • There has been an active fan effort encouraging people to request the movie at their local theaters, which means the theater map is still expanding.

If it’s not in your area (yet)

  • Fans have been emailing and requesting showings at nearby theaters using personalized messages, which has helped more locations pick it up.
  • Independent theaters in particular may be open to booking it if they see enough local interest.

Bottom line: Iron Lung is coming to a large number of theaters, but there is no single, static public list by theater name; use local showtime searches and the film’s official outlets to see exactly where it will play near you.
