Marvel's SHANG-CHI 2 Reportedly To Feature Time Travel and Iron Fist
According to a new report, Marvel Studios is still moving forward on a sequel to Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings and there are some interesting new details included in the report.
According to Hollywood insider Daniel Richtman, the film is currently titled Shang-Chi and the Wreckage of Time, and it’s set to begin production next year. It’s also reported that the story will involve time travel, and that Iron Fist will also be included in the story.
We aren’t sure what version of Iron Fist we’ll see if this is true, but I think it’s safe to say that it won’t be Finn Jones' Danny Rand.
These are all just rumors, but the source has a solid track record. However, things can easily change between now and the time that the movie actually starts shooting.
When previously asked about Shang-Chi and when we might see the character again, star Simu Liu said: "Oh man, I don't know to be honest. I mean, those things are so above my pay grade. I just wanna continue to be a fan of it. You know, when I get a call of like, 'Hey, this is what your in and this is where you're going to show up. And, this is when you're going to be need to be blacked out for.'"
He added: "That's kind of generally what tends to happen. But, you know Destin is such a special filmmaker and we're very happy to have him on the sequel. So, he'll be working on that and we're really excited to see what he comes up with. I think he's going to do a brilliant job."
Liu also shared: "There are a lot of ideas that we had in the opener, and some of those ideas are planted as questions, by the end of our movie. There are things that we potentially want to explore in the future. Everything changes so much, so it’s hard to say how many of those ideas will actually make it to the finish line, but there are many of them there."
I liked the first movie! It was a lot of fun and I think that the sequel could be even better now that the story can move on from the origin story.
The Shang-Chi sequel is currently being developed by Destin Daniel Cretton.
