Airport; Procedure
Number 1 for takeoff from Runway 7L; holding short full length waiting for clearance due to wake turbulence. Aircraft X landed on Runway 7R and received clearance to cross the left at Golf. As they entered Runway 7L; we received our clearance. I completed my final item flows; released the parking brake; and commenced a rolling takeoff. Aircraft X had completely crossed the Runway boundary at this time and was moving through the hold short as we took the Runway; I ignored it and set takeoff power. At 40 kts. or so Tower cancelled our takeoff clearance and I rejected the takeoff; confused but compliant. The Controller directed our attention to Aircraft X; which had stopped partway over the hold short line. As soon as they cleared; we received our clearance and resumed our departure.
Light Transport Captain reported rejected takeoff by ATC due to Air Carrier failing to clear runway safety area.
