JUSTICE LEAGUE And THOR: RAGNAROK Are Getting Day And Date Releases In China

Good news for the box office prospects of both Justice League and Thor: Ragnarok today as it's been revealed that they're getting day and date releases in China in line with their North America debuts.

When it comes to a movie's performance at the worldwide box office, China has become every bit as important as the US. In fact, the Middle Kingdom has managed to save more than one franchise over the years, with Pacific Rim: Uprising a perfect example of that. Well, looking ahead to the winter, there's good news for both Justice League and Thor: Ragnarok as they'll open sooner than expected.



With many movies, those in China are left waiting weeks or months to watch them, and by that point, they've been pirated or the hype surrounding them has simply died away. That clearly won't be the case with these comic book adaptations, though, as Thor: Ragnarok will thunder into the country on November 3rd and Justice League will be released on November 17th, the same days as the US.



That should propel both of these to massive opening weekends and with both Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Wonder Woman making just shy of $100 million in China, it will be interesting seeing if Justice League can top that. In other release date news, Blade Runner 2049 has been move up from November 10th to October 27th. Will the franchise be saved after a dismal domestic debut?
