‘Black Panther 2’, ‘Ant-Man 3‘ Secure China Release Dates, as Beijing Lifts De Facto Ban on Marvel
Marvel shared the surprise news Tuesday over its official Chinese social media accounts. The two titles will be the very first movies of Marvel’s Phase 4 to screen in China, as the last approved theatrical releases from the studio were. They also will test how the drought of MCU movies over the preceding two and half years has affected fan sentiment around the franchise.earned over $121.2 million in China in 2018 and the first Black Panther grossed $105 million that same year.
The long list of Marvel titles that were blocked from release in China over the past 30 months includedSpider-Man: No Way Home, The Eternals, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. As is there penchant, regulators never officially explained why the movies were denied entry, leaving the industry and commentators left speculating.
In any case, Hollywood — and Disney, in particular — can brief a sigh of relief that something akin to the pre-pandemic status quo might be returning. The first sign of good news came in late 2022 when China’s Film Bureau granted James Cameron’sa day-and-date release with the U.S. in December.
