Chinese fans welcomed the announcement.

Foreign films are tightly controlled in China, which imposes an annual release quota, and movies in the hugely popular Marvel franchises have been off the silver screen since the release of"Spider-Man: Far from Home" in July 2019.

The China Film Administration, affiliated with the Communist Party's propaganda department, has not offered any explanation on why Marvel movies were blocked. "Will they also release the other six instalments of the Marvel that were blocked?" wrote another, adding:"Now we can at least escape from our Covid-hit reality."

"Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania" -- the third movie in that franchise -- will hit Chinese cinemas on the same day it premieres in the United States.
