Movies Are Back in Theaters But People Not So Much: “Mulan” Doesn’t Excite Asian Audiences

Share

Movies are back in theaters in some countries. The people, not so much.

“Mulan” is only playing on Disney Plus in North America, but out in the world you can see it with pop corn.

Asian-oriented, “Mulan” should have done well in those countries. But the top box office numbers over there aren’t too exciting.

According to Exhibitor Relations, “Mulan” was met with apathy, scoring just $5.9 million in 9 territories including Taiwan, Thailand, Singapore, and Malaysia. Of course, those countries may recall the original “Mulan,” and hold it close to their hearts.

“Mulan” won’t have box office results in the US because there is no reporting from Disney about streaming numbers.
