Marvel’s “Shang-Chi” – the studio’s first Asian superhero movie – is a sign of the times.
Destin Daniel Cretton, who is of Asian descent, will be directing the film, which will feature a Chinese superhero who originally appeared in one of Marvel’s 1973 comics.
As a bilingual screenwriter with projects in the U.S. and China, I see “Shang-Chi” as yet another example of an exciting trend in Hollywood.
