Among the many rumors that have lingered around Phase Four of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the most intriguing might be the one about a movie for Shang-Chi, the martial artist who stars in Marvel’s comic series Master of Kung Fu.
Simu Liu will play the title role.
Short Term 12’s Destin Cretton is the director.
Marvel published Master of Kung Fu until 1983; since then the character has remained a fixture in the Marvel Comics Universe, appearing as a frequent guest star in other comics, and even getting his own mini-series from time to time.
