The first official footage from the Simu Liu starrer Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings has finally been revealed.

With Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings now expected to hit theaters this September following multiple delays due to the coronavirus pandemic, Marvel Studios has released a teaser trailer for its first Asian superhero movie.

Introduced in Special Marvel Edition #15 in December 1973, Shang-Chi is a skilled martial artist raised in an isolated compound located in China and trained by his father Fu Manchu, a Chinese crimelord and immortal sorcerer who repeatedly attempted to conquer the world. When he was finally allowed to venture into the outside world to do his father’s bidding, Shang-Chi learned about his father’s evil ways and faked his own death before embarking on a mission to take down Fu Manchu’s criminal empire.
Directed by Destin Daniel Cretton from a script written by David Callaham, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings stars Simu Liu, Awkwafina, Tony Leung, Ronny Chieng and Dallas Liu. Here’s the official synopsis for the Marvel Studios project:
