The above-mentioned medium has contacted Lemoine and Lemoine has stated that she decided to make the video to express its frustration about Disney's decision. Also that he has been promoting Mulan for months and that he and his colleagues expected the film to be a way to inject some life into French cinemas that have been reopening their doors from June. "It's a great effort to stay open for most of us, but we assume there will be some ambitious premieres in the coming weeks. Losing Mulan we miss the possibility of offering the audience a highly anticipated film that would have helped us after these hard weeks. It's also a bad message to the public," Lemoine explains.

"We thank Warner very much for the premiere of Tenet at the end of August. But it's not enough. studios have to understand that if they cancel these movies or put them on platforms, I'm not going to last much longer. I've dedicated my life to film-screening and I don't want to die!" he concludes. 



At the moment, it is unknown whether France will be one of the European countries chosen by Disney not to release Mulan in cinemas. Also in Spain, it is unknown whether the fans of the studio will be able to go to the rooms to enjoy the film or not.
