Overview

• Yeoh voices Nezha’s mother in the English dub and told Reuters she wants Hollywood to give Asian mythic heroes the same space as figures like Zeus and Thor.
• Ne Zha 2 surpassed Pixar’s Inside Out 2 in February to become the top-grossing animated film worldwide, according to data reported via Maoyan.
• The film’s total has reached 12.3 billion yuan, about US$2.2 billion, placing it among the highest-grossing movies ever, Maoyan figures show.
• A24 is distributing the English-language release, which follows the 2019 hit Ne Zha and draws from the 16th-century classic Investiture of the Gods.
• Yeoh said audiences should approach the movie as a universal ‘beautiful story’ rather than viewing it only as a Chinese film.
