Christian Bale: Dark Knight Gets No Love in China

A solo Christian Bale takes a stroll on Saturday (December 28) in Brentwood, Calif.

His latest film, The Dark Knight — the second highest-grossing movie in US box-office history — won’t be showing in China according to the movie’s studio.

Warner Bros. released a statement, saying, “Based on a number of pre-release conditions that are being attached to The Dark Knight as well as cultural sensitivities to some elements of the film, we have opted to forego a theatrical release of the film in China.”
