Southern Theatres was a movie theater chain based in New Orleans, Louisiana, United States. It was founded by George Solomon in May 2002. It operated two brands: The Grand Theatre, and AmStar Cinemas. In 2023, the chain was acquired by Santikos Theatres, which purchased the chain from Veronis Suhler Stevenson. Veronis Suhler Stevenson had purchased a minority stake in the chain in April 2005 and later took majority control.

Prior to its acquasition by Santikos, Southern Theatres operated 18 multiplex stadium-seating movie theaters (12 with luxury seating), with 266 combined screens in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina and Texas, making it at one time the sixteenth-largest theater chain in the U.S.
