Film producer buys historic Manhasset theater for $3M
David Winzelberg//August 6, 2026//
One of Long Island‘s oldest movie houses has a new owner.
Assemble Media, a company founded and owned by film producer Jack Heller, purchased the Manhasset Cinemas property at 430 Plandome Road for $3 million. The three-screen theater is in a 15,554-square-foot building on .32 acres at 430 Plandome Road.
The buyer plans on a gut renovation of the building and many improvements to the theater, according to the broker on the deal. A single-office residential brokerage firm and a coffee importing business currently occupy about 1,200 square feet on the ground floor.

Heller, who’s Assemble Media has produced more than 30 films and TV shows, serves as chairman of the board of directors for the nonprofit Southampton Playhouse, which was redeveloped by Aby Rosen. The Southampton entertainment venue, another historic Long Island movie house, originally opened in 1932.
“We’re thrilled to reopen the Manhasset theater and welcome audiences back to this beloved community landmark,” Heller said. “This first phase of renovations marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter, with a long-term vision to transform the property into a premier entertainment destination featuring best-in-class exhibition technology, elevated guest experiences, and a lasting commitment to serving and strengthening the local community.”
Built by Century Circuit, the Art Deco-style Manhasset movie house opened in Nov. 1936 as a single-screen theater. Over the years, Manhasset Cinema had several different operators, including Skouras Theatres, Century Theaters, United Artists, Clearview Cinemas and Bow Tie Cinemas.
Broker Clem Coté of Syosset-based Sovereign Realty Group represented the buyer, as well as the seller, Cinemas GMC LLC, an affiliate of Great Neck-based Gilman Management Corp., in the Manhasset sales transaction.
Selling the theater property was a difficult assignment.
“Downtown Manhasset is challenged with a lack of parking. We met with local government leaders early on to discuss solutions to the problem,” Coté told LIBN. “Many officials and local residents had an affinity for the theater. Many of them grew up attending films and birthday parties at the site. After a very long marketing and outreach campaign, we were able to connect with a company that had a proven theater redevelopment concept.”
The Manhasset theater sale is an historic movie house sequel for Coté, who sold the century-old Roslyn Cinema for $1.675 million in June 2025. The buyer, local developer Kevin Dursun, is currently converting the property at 20 Tower Place into high-end boutique retail space.
Coté said the Manhasset deal, like with most historic properties, had its own set of obstacles.
“We knew we had our work cut out for us. We were drawn to the history and character of the nearly century old building,” he said. “Movie theaters are very expensive redevelopment projects to complete and do not appeal to a large buyer audience. This buyer had the desire to preserve as much of the history this theater possessed as possible. We are excited to watch their vision for the theater unfold and will continue to assist them in any way we can.”
