Watch Shang chi and the legend of the ten rings official trailer
The teaser of the movie was released by Marvel on the occasion of star Simu Liu’s birthday, also giving a sneak peek into the film’s villains, Razor Fist and Death Dealer. The movie’s production was wrapped on December 10 last year after several COVID-19 pandemic delays. Its original release was given out as May 7, 2021, but it took a halt in mid-march last year.
Who is Shang-Chi?
The character, a master of unarmed combat, first appeared in Marvel comics in 1973, when the ABC TV drama Kung Fu, starring David Carradine, was popular. Shang-Chi was born the son of supervillain Fu Manchu, but later opposed his father’s ways. In 2013, he joined The Avengers. He’s also been affiliated with the Heroes for Hire, but is often simply a lone-wolf character.
His main power wasn’t really a traditional superpower. Instead, he had the ability to master forms of combat, earning the nickname the Master of Kung Fu. Although in later years, he did gain the power to replicate himself, which could come in handy.
How to watch shang chi and the legend of the ten rings
Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings will open in theaters Sept. 3 and run there exclusively for 45 days. So if you want to watch the film at home, you’ll need to wait until its run in theaters is over, when it will become available on Disney Plus. That means a mid-October home release.
This may disappoint some viewers who aren’t willing to go back to movie theaters with the coronavirus delta variant surging. Black Widow, which came out in July, was available not just in cinemas, but on Disney Plus if subscribers were willing to fork over a premium fee of in addition to their subscription cost. Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings isn’t offering that at-home option right away.
