The Real Mandarin Will Finally Appear in Marvel’s Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings

Marvel‘s upcoming Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, will introduce the MCU’s first Asian-American superhero. Shang-Chi will be played by Simu Liu, and while Liu will be introducing a brand new superhero to the MCU (although, of course, one well-known to comics fans), he’ll be facing off against a villain that’s been lurking in the shadows of the MCU since 2008’s Iron Man—the Mandarin—to be played by Tony Leung.
