As is the case with its release here in the United States, director Ron Howard’s Solo: A Star Wars Story will be making its theatrical debut in China (the world’s second-largest film market) on May 25 according to this report posted on The Hollywood Reporter.
Disney and Lucasfilm’s hotly anticipated Solo: A Star Wars Story has locked down its release date in the world’s second-largest box-office territory. The stand-alone Star Wars film will descend upon the Middle Kingdom on May 25, the same day it unfurls across North America, several sources in Beijing with knowledge of the local distribution plans told THR on Thursday.
A spokesperson for Disney in Shanghai said the studio had not yet received official confirmation of Solo’s release date.
Fans located in the UK will be able to experience Solo one day sooner.
