After the release of "Black Widow", this means that we are getting closer and closer to the release of the movie "Shangqi". Marvel's "Shangqi" promised audiences that the film would have plenty of action, adventure, and humorous elements. This, in the trailer, is quite obvious. Nevertheless, in the movie "Shangqi", we also see an unexpected character - Wang.
The character of Wang first appeared in the Doctor Strange movie, so when he appeared in the movie "Shangqi", we were curious whether there would be some kind of connection between the next "Doctor Strange 2" and "Shangqi". Regarding joining the film "Shangqi", Benedit Wang, the actor who plays Wang, revealed that he was very excited to work with Shangqi actor Liu Simu, and he also talked about why he joined the film.
Like many others, Benedict Wang is an avid Marvel fan, so he was ecstatic when he joined Doctor Strange. Of course, this also laid the groundwork for him to join the movie "Shangqi". In response, the actor said: "When Shangqi announced the production, I was very happy that Marvel announced this exciting news. At the same time, I was also a little frustrated because I wasn't part of the movie. Unexpectedly, Marvel called and they told me that I would appear in the movie and I immediately agreed to join. ”
I think any actor who gets a call from Marvel Studios will be happy. Benedict Wang revealed that he enjoyed his moments in the Marvel Universe, but joining Shangqi had a deeper meaning for him. In an interview with Syfy Wire, he further explained that he was very happy to participate in the production of Shangqi as an Asian actor: "You know, I'm super excited. I sat with the elites of Asia. It's simply amazing. I'm a huge fan of these artists. So, this is a constant surprise, and this is what the role of Wang gave me. ”
Like "Black Panther" before it, the movie "Shangqi" is expected to become a watershed in the Marvel Universe. There is no doubt that for many people, the character of Shangqi entering the Marvel Universe is of great significance. Of course, I can also understand why Marvel asked Benedict Wang to join the film, after all, he is also an Asian actor, so it is very meaningful for him to participate in the film.
In addition to Benedit Wang, Liu Simu, the star of "Shangqi", also spoke very frankly about the significance of this film for him. Although the actor had mixed feelings about the film project at first, as Shangqi finished filming, he was looking forward to the future that his new role could bring to the Marvel Universe. While it's unclear whether Shangqi will be released in theaters and disney channels like Black Widow, I hope the film won't be delayed any longer.
Overall, as a fourth-phase marvel universe film, I believe that ShangQi will bring us a lot of different things. As for how much this movie will be related to the future "Doctor Strange 2", we will wait and see. Of course, I also hope to see Benedict Wang have a wonderful performance in future Marvel movies.
