SHANG-CHI AND THE LEGEND OF THE TEN RINGS: It Sounds Like The Titular Hero Will Get His Own Superhero Suit

Thanks to a recent comment from Shang-Chi star Simu Liu, it sounds like we can indeed expect the Master of the Martial Arts to don a superhero suit. We also have intel on that rumoured tournament...

Captain Marvel star Brie Larson recently shared some photos of her costume test for that Marvel Studios movie, but in a comment left by Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings star Simu Liu, he's revealed that he's currently undergoing a similar process

As you can see below, the actor has strongly hinted at Shang-Chi having a superhero costume of some sort, and that makes a lot more sense than him wearing what the character was frequently seen in during his earlier appearances in the Marvel Universe. In fact, he's often had a proper suit in recent years, so this probably shouldn't come as a major surprise!

In related Shang-Chi news, Murphy's Multiverse is reporting that there are potential plans for the film to feature some sort of underground Kung Fu tournament (where you have to believe the titular hero would be named a Master of the Martial Arts). This is something which has been rumoured for a while now, of course, but a new casting call supports those claims. 

Apparently, Marvel Studios is on the hunt for a male actor to film a brief scene in which he will livestream Shang-Chi's main characters as they enter a "large scale fight." 

According to an apparent plot leak shared by the site, The Mandarin will force Shang-Chi to compete in this tournament due to the prize being the ancient Ten Rings he has spent years searching for. We don't know how true that is, but it definitely sounds like a fun premise for this adventure.

What do you guys think?

@PicolasCage - yes, good riddance to the franchise that lead to superhero movies being taken seriously as well as including some of the best cbms ever made.

@TheJustinHammer - there’s nothing worse you can do with super hero movies than just giving the characters regular clothes, but yet another red, blue or black hero costume in the MCU would be almost as bad. Now that we’re phasing out the old guard, let’s get some green, yellow, orange, white and purple onto the screen!

Been watching Kim’s Convenience on Netflix and Simu Liu is awesome in it. Can’t wait, this and Doctor Strange are the 2 I’m most excited about....

@AnthonyVonGeek - it's a great, sweet show. And the ongoing storyline of Jung and his dad slowly trying to rebuild their relationship is very well handled and realistic.
He's a charming mother[frick]er. I'd love for Andrea Bang (Janet) to score a cameo in the film as a complete neurotic mess like she is on the show.

@TheFamousJMC - I love it. The parents steal the show like how Red and Kitty stole the show on That 70s Show. 🤣👍

@TheNZNatural - I love it! Got hooked a few weeks ago and have been forcing myself to only watch a few episodes a week so I can make it last. I’m halfway through season 2 right now. 👍🙌

The thing I am most excited about is finally seeing the Mandarin on the big screen.

Ever since I was a kid, I wanted to see THIS on the big screen:



I remember getting hyped about him from IM3's trailers, then I go this:



So, FINALLY, I hope Shang-Chi will show the proper version of him.
