On the movie side of the MCU, Shang-Chi will be the first of these new characters to be introduced, and he’s getting his own movie so viewers can really get to know him. Titled Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, it follows the title character (played by Simu Liu) as he’s drawn into the Ten Rings organization, forcing him to confront his past and his family’s legacy, which is strongly connected to that dangerous group. Joining Shang-Chi on this journey will be his friend Katy (Awkwafina), whose role has been kept a secret – and images of some toys might hint at why.

She suggested Clement Street, "the old Chinatown of San Francisco", as the characters' home because it does not have the expected Chinatown cliches. The film's San Francisco apartment set was one of Chan's favorites due to its accuracy to real Asian-American houses. Another favorite was a restaurant set where Wenwu kills his enemies, for which Chan took inspiration from Hong Kong gangster films. Cretton wanted Xialing's fight club to be fun and show her character rather than be scary and dangerous. Chan noted that Xialing's office combines imagery of skulls with flowers and bold colors, and the sets incorporate the character's feminist views. The fighting arena is an octagon because the number eight is significant in Asian cultures. [77]a b c d Hartlaub, Peter.
