BBC Studios , All3Media and ITV Studios have stopped doing business with Russia in protest of President Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine last week.

That includes WB’s The Batman , set to bow March 3 in Russia, and the Disney/Pixar title Turning Red , which was slated for a March 10 release in the country.
