Meanwhile, Simu Liu, who is riding high on the success of his film, recently shared his desire of doing a musical film.
In an interview with RadioTimes, the actor said that he wants the next Shang-Chi film to be a musical. He even shared that the people will see his singing skills in Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings in a karaoke scene.
“Is it too early to say a musical? I’ve always been a bit of a karaoke junkie. You saw a little bit of my talent in the movie, and I think that it bodes for a very exciting future for Shang as one of the first musical heroes in the MCU. I think that you would agree,” Simu Liu said.
