Should've done him instead of Iron Fist, who has never been an interesting character and that continued to be the case with the TV shows. Read Ed Brubaker and Matt Fractions run and tell me that. Read the 70s series,it is also really good. Need to get the rest of Fraction's run,but what I have read of it was good. Hell that Power Man and Iron Fist series was pretty damn good for a decent run.Sure towards the end it went to crap. But that happened to a lot of Marvel's B level titles back during that time frame. IIRC Shooter wasn't a fan of Power Man&Iron Fist so wanted it cancelled.

I wonder how they're going to work around the fact that Shang Chi's crime boss father is literally Fu Manchu, a character they haven't had the rights to for decades.
Like, the obvious answer would be to just give him a new name, but I don't think the comics have ever acknowledged the change. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

As they have said The Mandarin is in the movie I would think it is most likely he will be Shang Chi's father.

His name was changed to Zheng Zu in Secret Avengers #8.

Feel like this movie's been put in a very unfortunate position by Disney by only being put out in theaters. Given the current circumstances it'd be miraculous if it isn't the lowest grossing MCU movie (other than maybe Incredible Hulk and even then that's going to be a big hill to climb under the circumstances) and that's just going to be fodder for all the usual, "Get woke go broke!" morons.

Making Shang Chi theaters-only while Delta is running wild almost makes it come off like they're setting it up to fail.

Thing is, pushing back Black Widow was one thing when that was the only MCU movie they had in the can but they have 5 movies that are completed or in post right now scheduled for the next 8 months with 2 more currently filming for 2022, one of these movies was gonna get lost in the shuffle if there were anymore COVID delays since they shit the bed severely with the Disney+ Premiere Access idea. This or the Eternals was gonna suffer to ensure Spider-Man, Doctor Strange and Thor don't get crowded or have their proven drawing power hurt.

Or maybe they just don't want to repeat what they did that pissed off Scarlett Johannsen and Kevin Feige. I doubt Disney intentionally wants one of their movies to fail, especially one that has the potential to be "Asian Black Panther" as far as cultural perception goes.

{Spoiler}Something tells me he doesn't survive the first 10 minutes of the film. Well... {Spoiler}Leaked photos show him fighting alongside the heroes in the final battle, albeit more as a background character. {Spoiler}

No confirmation yet, but apparently the post-credit scene either teases or straight up features {Spoiler}Iron Fist and The Hand.

Bob Chapek said that and he’s the head of Disney! He wouldn’t lie to us! the experiment I thought was the 45 days before appearing on Disney+ specifically not releasing it into theaters while people still aren't going to theaters...
