DMG had earlier suggested that the film would be an official U.S.-Chinese co-production, giving Marvel a larger slice of the Chinese box office, but it's now understood that the film will be classified as an import. The movie will benefit from DMG's local foothold for Chinese marketing and promotion, though. The producers recently announced that there will be a special cut for the Chinese market, with more scenes set in the country and a feature appearance by Chinese star Fan Bingbing.
