Chinese animated film "Ne Zha 2" will be released in Singapore on Mar. 6.
A comment left by film distributor Encore Films on its announcement post confirmed that the movie will be available at Cathay Cineplexes.
At press time, there's no confirmation that the flick will be available in IMAX.
The blockbuster has earned 12.3 billion yuan (about S$2.27 billion), surpassing "Inside Out 2" and becoming the highest-grossing animated movie in history.
More than 99 per cent of the film's box office income was earned from China, according to Reuters.

The film is a sequel to the film "Ne Zha" which was released in 2019 and is based on the 16th-century novel "The Investiture of the Gods".

The two characters will have to share Ne Zha's body and go through a series of trials to get Ao Bing a new body.
