CNY releases from China and Hong Kong – namely Jackie Chan’s Vanguard, Detective Chinatown 3, The Rescue and Jiang Zi Ya: Legend Of Deification – were cancelled in the region, as the distributors decided to pull out the films for public health reasons.

The last-minute cancellation of the above-mentioned titles naturally affected the admission intake during the CNY peak period in January.
