“Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings” fans can now watch the movie and bonus content in the comfort of their homes with the latest release.
The legacy: In an exclusive behind-the-scenes clip, the origins of the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s (MCU) Shang-Chi are revealed by producer Jonathan Schwartz.
  • Schwartz mentions how the comic version of the character wouldn’t translate over to a modern audience, so the “Shang-Chi” filmmaking team needed to revisit and update how he would be portrayed.
  • Lead actor Simu Liu speaks about the necessity of representation as the clip cuts over to scenes of the fantastical set designs, granting viewers insight into how they were shot.
  • “This is an Asian superhero in the MCU. That’s an important distinction for us, and my first reaction to reading the script, I cried,” Liu says. “For so many reasons I cried, because we got to see an Asian superhero saving the world and saving the day, and it was just such a profound moment for me, as a fan, as an actor, as an Asian person.”
