<p>The Marvel Cinematic Universe is easily one of the most lucrative undertakings in film history, not to mention the most ambitious. Bringing a collection of Marvel superheroes into one shared space, the MCU has done justice to beloved icons while breathing renewed life into several fresh faces. And while many of the heavy-hitters have already seen representation, <a href="https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/disney-and-marvel-share-mcu-phase-4-release-dates-news.79522.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">the upcoming fourth phase will launch several new heroes into the spotlight</a> &#8212; starting with Shang-Chi.</p>

<p>Today, the first official trailer for the upcoming <em>Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings </em>has arrived, ahead of its planned September 3rd release date. Featuring a heavy glimpse at what&#8217;s to come &#8212; albeit largely by way of action set pieces, as the plotline remains more or less under wraps &#8212; much of the focus centers around Simu Liu&#8217;s titular Shang-Chi and his stylish penchant for ass-kicking. </p>
<p>In addition to what appears to be a thorough deep dive into Shang-Chi&#8217;s mysterious origin story, producer Jonathan Schwarz spoke highly of the action scenes. &#8220;It&#8217;s the best action [Marvel has] ever done,&#8221; he says, as <a href="https://www.ign.com/articles/marvel-shang-chi-poster-revealed-trailer-release-few-weeks" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">cited by IGN</a>. &#8220;Every punch is meaningful, every fighting style is meaningful, and the story is told visually in such a great way.&#8221;</p>
<p>In addition to Simu Liu (who marks Marvel&#8217;s first lead of Asian descent), <em>Shang-Chi </em>also stars Tony Leung, Awkwafina, Michelle Yeoh, Meng&#8217;er Zhang, Fala Chen, Florian Munteanu, and Ronny Chieng. The film will be directed by Destin Daniel Cretten. Check out the first official trailer below, and look for <em>Shang-Chi and the Legend Of The Ten Rings </em>to hit theatres on September 3rd. </p>
