Simu Liu Confirms Shang-Chi And Other Characters Will Meet Soon

“I’m such a big fan of both the characters and the performers that play them, so any collaboration is an opportunity for me to work alongside someone who, in their own way, is breaking barriers and at the very top of their game. I think that’s what excites me the most as a performer, also as a fan.”

He added that thanks to Destin Daniel Cretton, the producer of Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings as well as Avengers: The Kang Dynasty, he will get to see many of the actors he admires. Although the sequel is nowhere near being completed, or even started, there is a lot that Cretton and Liu want to do. However, it is clear that Shang-Chi will meet Captain Marvel and the other characters sooner rather than later.

It has already been established that Carol Danvers is interested in finding the origins of Shang-Chi’s rings. So it could be very easy for the two to meet, either of them holding information for the other. They both have superpowers that make them shine on their own accord. Their crossover has been one demanded much by the fans. They have been eagerly waiting to see how the two would interact if they came to meet face to face.

A way for Larson and Liu to be in the same movie could be that the signal that the rings had been giving out gets discovered by Captain Marvel ultimately. The two work together in trying to fight whatever is attracting the rings.

The Marvels will be available to watch in theatres from 10th November 2023.
