Spirited Away has made more than twice as much as Toy Story 4 at the Chinese box office 18 years after it was made.
Despite falling short of expectations, Toy Story 4 – directed by Josh Cooler – broke a UK record in its opening weekend.
The Japanese Studio Ghibli classic, which was officially released in 2001, was never shown in Chinese cinemas, but became a household favourite thanks to DVDs and pirated downloads.
The first Ghbili film to be shown in Chinese cinemas was My Neighbour Totoro, which was finally released last year, 30 years after being made.
