The Simu Liu led introduction to Marvel’s Shang-Chi, the🤪 Master of Kung Fu, was showcased in the studio’s recent trailer for Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings. While most were🏅 mesmerized by the atmospheric set pieces and hypnotic combat, eagle-eyed viewers were busy hunting Easter eggs.
Destin Daniel Cretton has taken a leap into the action genre with Shang-Chi, casting the Taken (TV series) actor in the titular role alongside Awkwafina - who promises to deliver most of the feature’s comedy. Even though we’ve been graced with a Spring trailer, Shang-Chi will not enter into its theater-only release window until September 3, after 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Disney delayed a nu♔mber of its upcoming films. Nevertheless, thꦇe first Shang-Chi trailer was a promising two-minute teaser, and fans have already spotted two componen𝓡ts that link it to other MCU features.
The first Marvel egg that was delicately hidden in plain sight was the iconic Captain America shield, which can be seen around the 52-second mark to the left of Shang-Chi behind some bars. This particular shield variant is the one belonging to The Fa🃏lcon and The Winter Soldier’s John Walker, and it is currently unknown how the Super-Patriot-to-be’s signature weapon has ended up in Shang-Chi territory.
The second treat comes courtesy of a Spider-Man: Homecoming cameo, during the fight sequence on the bus. At around 1:34, Awkwafina is looking at Shang-Chi in amazement, but over her left shoulder you can see a familiar, bearded face. This face belongs to none other than the street vendor from Homecoming, 𝓰who asks Tom Holland’s Spidey to “do a flip”. One fan called out the vendor’s actor Zach Cherry, who asked: “that you?” To which the actor replied: “It’s not not.”
The interwoven narrative existing within the behemoth MCU franchise never fails to excite fans as it expands, and actor Simu Liu has been campaigning for his role as Shang-Chi since 2014. The proactive actor has not only been 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:a 🤪spokesperson against anti-Asian raci🤪sm, but Liu has also been encou𒊎raging Marvel to consider him for the role of the Kung 🔯Fu Master since his to the studio seven years ago.
Not only is Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings synchronizing with Marvel’s spin-offs and Spider-Man’s arc, but it may also be the platform for Tony Stark’s return. Thanks to the release o▨f a Shang-Chi action figure🥂, we got our first look at what the late character would look like as an AI.
