The Warner Bros studio said on Wednesday it has canceled plans

to release its blockbuster Batman movie “The Dark Knight” in China, citing “cultural sensitivities” surrounding the film.

The studio, a unit of Time Warner Inc, did not specify what Chinese audiences or censors might find objectionable about the movie.

“Based on a number of pre-release conditions that are being attached to ‘The Dark Knight,’ as well as cultural sensitivities to some elements of the film, we have opted to forego a theatrical release of the film in China,” Warner Bros said in a statement.
