According to a rumor posted on the forums of BoxOfficeTheory.com, Black Adam has been banned in China and will no longer show in the country as previously expected. According to an anonymous user who went by the username “Isaac Newton”, the DCU film has failed to secure the Chinese market because of a remark made by Doctor Fate actor Pierce Brosnan.In an interview with GQ Magazine last month (via Comic Book Resources), the 69-year-old actor apparently told an anecdote about a meeting he once had with the Dalai Lama which might have angered the Chinese audience. As it stands, Warner Bros. Discovery has yet to address the rumored ban and confirm its legitimacy. However, Black Adam is still interestingly listed on Chinese databases and social media for a November release so there may not be any truth to the concerning rumor after all.
