How Wuhan coronavirus could impact 'Mulan's' global box office - Business Insider

Disney's live-action "Mulan" remake hits theaters in the US next month, but a China release date had not been set before nearly all of China's 70,000 movie theaters closed in response to the Wuhan coronavirus.

China's theatrical industry is the second largest in the world behind the US, and "Mulan" was expected to be a box-office hit there despite past controversies surrounding potential inaccuracies in the movie. Disney live-action remakes, for the most part, have not been box-office sensations in China, potentially because they lack cultural relevance there, Paul Dergarabedian, the Comscore senior media analyst, said. "Mulan" doesn't have this issue.

Even so, Dergarabedian called the situation in China "unprecedented," as it could be difficult for the movie to rebound even if it eventually opens in the region.Disney's live-action "Mulan" remake hits theaters on March 27 in the US and other territories, but one place it likely won't be coming to soon is China.
