Summary
Shang - Chi 2actor Simu Liu clear up the concern about his subsequence not happening followingsemi - recent behind - the - scenery change with Disney ’s firing strategyfor theMarvel Cinematic Universe . By this August , it will have been on the button three days sincetheShang - Chi and the Legend of the Ten Ringsending , bringing the titulary submarine into the MCU . However , despiteShang - Chi 2being confirmed to happen , the continuation is still nowhere to be seen on the MCU release schedule .
During a recent appearance onThe Tonight Show star Jimmy Fallon , the MCU star was asked aboutnewShang - Chi 2updates , as there has been lilliputian progression on the subsequence . While he did n’t have any specific updates about when filming may depart , Liu give a detailed response aboutShang - Chi 2still happening :
You want me to lose my chore , is that it ? This is where I use all the genial gymnastics that I possibly can to answer this question , I will say this . It ’s by all odds happening , I should probably lead with that . People , whether it ’s on-line or in person , inquire me every undivided day and tell me every undivided twenty-four hours how much they enjoy the first moving picture and how much of a consequence it was . And I think there ’s just so much grace , and I ’m so deep appreciative of that .
So please know that if you ’ve ever sent me a substance , if you ’ve ever asked about a sequel or just approached or any which direction , I really take it to heart , and I really , really apprise it . I call back I speak for myself and Destin [ Daniel Cretton ] , our returning director , when I say that we ’re so beyond unrestrained to jump back in .
Simu Liu take the cast of Shang - Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings , alongside many new , bring back , and surprising character in the MCU .
Why Is Shang-Chi 2 Taking So Long To Happen?
Despite Liu ’s positively charged statement , it still begs the question of why it is taking an extended amount of prison term forShang - Chi 2to happen . Shang - Chi and the Legend of the Ten Ringswas one of the more successful films in Phase 4 , enter a brand new hero to the MCU with the potential to pop up in other Marvel projects . However , he simply has n’t . Given widespread complaint over issues with VFX and spell in the post - EndgameMCU , ignoring arguably the best new character to come from the era seems odd .
It ’s also worth taking into account that Marvel Studios is also have to figure out where to go afterthe sacking of Jonathan Majors , which may be slowing other projects down behind the scene . Shang - Chi 2is something that Marvel Studios may be taking more clock time with so as to build on the good will earned by the champion ’s first film jaunt . It would n’t be lurid ifShang - Chi 2is either one of the many mystic Phase 6 project or something that gets saved until Phase 7 after The Multiverse Saga ’s ending .
Something that would be beneficial to the MCU is having Liu ’s Shang - Chi show up in other Marvel Studios picture show and TV shows to bulge out laying more of a foundation with other characters in the dealership . Outside of Wong , Captain Marvel , and Bruce Banner , Shang - Chi has yet to build some right dynamics with the larger MCU , which could be useful ahead of his sequel . Hopefully , there will be moreShang - Chi 2news sooner rather than later on .
