One of the most anticipated films of the upcoming MCU Phase 4 slate is Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings. The Illuminerdi is excited to share two new looks for Simu Liu’s Shang-Chi and Tony Leung’s Mandarin!
New Look at Shang-Chi
This packaging from the Marvel Legends toy series seemingly reveals one of the looks Simu Liu will be sporting in the upcoming film!
The packaging reads:
Trained since childhood by the mysterious Ten Rings Organization, Shang-Chi must confront the past he thought he left behind when he is drawn back into his father’s web
The film is pitting Shang-Chi up against a composite of both the Mandarin and his father Fu Manchu, played by the great Tony Leung, who will be known as Wenwu.
Exclusive New Look at The Mandarin
A separate toy packaging from the Marvel Legends gives us the first ever look at Tony Leung’s The Mandarin!
The packaging reads:
Shang-Chi’s father Wenwu is the feared leader of the Ten Rings Organization, which has lurked in the shadows of the MCU since the very beginning
The Mandarin has been in the MCU since the very beginning, with Tony Stark’s kidnapping and imprisonment at the hands of the Ten Rings in Iron Man, that lead to his creation of the Iron Man armor. Speaking of The Mandarin’s costume, those look to be the Ten Rings adorned on his forearms!
Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings is directed by Destin Daniel Cretton and also stars Awkwafina, Fala Chen, Meng’er Zhang, Florian Munteanu, Ronny Chieng, Dallas Liu, and Michelle Yeoh (who also briefly appeared in Guardians of the Galaxy 2 as Aleta Ogord of the Ravagers).
