Edit: Quoting one of the boycott comment:

"As a Disney fans, I am NOT going to watch this movie not today not tomorrow not ever. It is because the actress of playing Mulan was supporting Hong Kong police violence. Mulan is a girl full of love and justice! However, this actress supports police to head shoot protesters and fire expired tear gas! This is not what Mulan supposed to be. By the way, she is an American citizen. US is a free and a civilised country and this woman does not deserve to be a citizen of it."

Her statement was "I also support Hong Kong police." in her Weibo.
