New US tariffs on Chinese goods have prompted China to limit the number of American films shown in the country. This retaliatory move could significantly impact Hollywood's revenue and cultural influence in China, which has already seen a decline in the popularity of US films in recent years. While US films previously grossed around $3 billion annually in China, this figure dropped to $1.2 billion last year. Despite this decline and government restrictions, pirated streaming of Hollywood films remains readily available in China.
