The film has already become one of the most powerful titles of 2024
It is the ninth highest-grossing film of the year and one of the most powerful science fiction titles of 2024. Now, Civil War can climb positions or maintain its position on the list because the film A24 will be seen in China. In this way, Alex Garland’s science fiction film is the first from the famous independent studio to get a release in the Asian country.
Civil War will hit Chinese theaters on June 7 after Huahua Media has purchased the film, which will be distributed in association with Alibabaas reported deadline.
Kristen Dunst, Wagner Moura and Cailee Spaeny star in Civil War. The three play journalists who are covering the American war: after the president began his third term – something illegal in the country – he dismantled the FBI and attacked civilians; Texas and California join forces to create the Western Forces and they declare war on him.
