“Doctor Strange In The Multiverse Of Madness” has gotten a backlash from China leading to a no release date by the Chinese authorities.

The highly anticipated film featuring Benedict Cumberbatch shows the actor in a fight scene with Gargantos. This scene is where the Chinese authorities frown at “Doctor Strange In The Multiverse Of Madness” as the background of the fight scene has a Chinese kiosk with Chinese characters for The Epoch Times.

Epoch Times is a media company that disagrees with the Chinese Communist Party.

Other Marvel films in China since the pandemic that were not given release dates include the following: Black Widow, Eternals, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, Venom: Let There Be Carnage and Spider-Man: No Way Home. Some of the notions as to why these happened are politically affiliated.
