Disney's new movie starring pro-Beijing actress did not enjoy a head start

Disney's live-action adaptation of Mulan, plagued by the #BoycottMulan scandal after starring actress Liu Yifei vocally supported HK Police during anti-ELAB protests last year, may be seeing its final undoing at the box office due to the global Wuhan coronavirus outbreak.

Costing USD $200 million for production, the film only managed to gross $874 over the first two weeks, with the opening day's sale only $83. Due to quarantine measures around the world, the film has only managed to premiere in Norway.

Originally expected to be a blockbuster, Disney has announced that the movie's release would be delayed due to the pandemic. However, it is hard to tell if it will premiere in other countries due to the ongoing outbreak.
