Without solid evidence but Shannon’s interview with The Wrap to back the source’s claim it is being concluded that Once Upon A Time in Hollywood might not release in China at all. In the interview, Shannon had shared, “He (my father) comes across as an arrogant a*****e who was full of hot air. And not someone who had to fight triple as hard as any of those people did to accomplish what was naturally given to so many others.”
With Quentin Tarantino not ready to make the desired cuts for the film to release in China, it seems the fate of the Brad Pitt and DiCaprio starrer has been sealed in the region.
