Cineworld lodged proposals for the extension at its Queens Links Leisure Park site last month.
If approved, it would include a 409-seat Imax screen housed in a two-storey extension which would also include the projection suite and a coffee shop.
Now Castlehill and Pittodrie Community Council has backed the proposed development.
The group said there was “overwhelming” support for the project and believes it would bring more visitors to the beach.
They said it also “reflects a confidence” in the city with Cineworld hoping to open an expanded entertainment complex.
