. The underlying controversy stemmed from the film's casting and the perception of the comic book series that "Shang-Chi" is based on.

In addition, "Eternals," "Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness" and "Thor: Love and Thunder" were not approved for release in China, nor was the Sony-Disney coproduction "Spider-Man: No Way Home." At present, the film has generated around 11% of its total global gross from China, or about $214 million. For comparison, the first "Avatar" collected around $250 million in ticket sales during its run in 2009 and 2010.

Additionally, while previous Ant-Man films have tallied smaller global box office numbers in comparison to other flicks in the MCU — 2015's "Ant-Man' scored $519 million and "Ant-Man and the Wasp" snared $622 million — "Quantumania" is expected to pull in more moviegoers because it features the MCU's newest major villain, Kang.
