Ahead of the release star Simu Liu who will be seen playing Shang-Chi, opened up about his experience with the character. Speaking about his first reaction when he heard the script, Simu Liu told us at Filmibeat, "I remember I was so excited to read the script because Daniel Destin Cretton (Director) and I had talked about it quite a bit. Destin had done such a beautiful job of describing the story to me before I got to read it. And then when I read it, I cried."

Notably, Liu will be seen confronting his past that he thought to have left behind. However, he is drawn into the web of the mysterious Ten Rings organization run by his father played by Tony Leung. The film also stars Awkwafina, Meng'er Zhang, Fala Chen, Florian Munteanu, Benedict Wong, Yuen Wah, Ronny Chieng, Zach Cherry, Dallas Liu, and Michelle Yeoh.

Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings was released earlier this month in the UK and US with positive reviews from fans and critics alike. Many have also called it one of a kind superhero film while others said it is nothing compared to other Marvel releases.
