Like the rest of Marvel Studios' Phase 4 slate, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings has been hit by a series of delays. Right now, the film is scheduled to be released in July, and an unexpected first look has been revealed courtesy of a leaked LEGO set.
Yes, yes, we know that these sets often don't represent what's in the films, but that is official promo art depicting actor Simu Liu in his Shang-Chi costume. It's pretty cool, and pays homage to the comics in a great way. However, it's what else this set features which might end up grabbing your attention.
That massive water dragon may or may not be in Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, but it's intriguing to think the film might revolve around the hero fighting creatures like this.
The set also contains Xialing (played by Meng'er Zhang) and Wenwu (Tony Leung). The latter, remember, is actually The Mandarin, so this LEGO minifigure offers a first look at how he might appear. Death Dealer is an obscure Shang-Chi villain, but the little creature called Morris...well, you're guess is as good as ours when it comes to who or what that is!
