The couple began their romance in the coronavirus age, McEntire admitting that she thought Linn was “very interesting, very funny [and] very smart” after working on her podcast together. “It’s good to have a person to talk to, laugh with, get into subjects about what’s going on,” she says. “Discussions about our past, our family, funny stories, him being an actor, me being an actress.

For those who are actually interested in the AMC private screening offer, the offer is available for $99 at select AMC locations. Movie theatres have been struggling during the pandemic as they have been struggling to seat people safely within theatres, so this is just another great way to enjoy a movie on your own time and also support the struggling AMC chain.
