With the release of Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, the second film in the MCU’s Phase 4 in September 2021, Marvel Studios contributed to the resurgence of the movie theatre industry. This origin narrative startled the world when it broke box office records over Labor Day Weekend, an especially outstanding achievement that prompted the creation of Shang-Chi 2.
After his first solo film, Simu Liu’s titular character is expected to have a long career in the MCU because of recent hints that he’ll have a significant influence on Phases 5 and 6. And even while it’s likely that he’ll fight alongside Earth’s Mightiest Heroes in Avengers: The Kang Dynasty and Avengers: Secret Wars, he’ll also soon go on another solo journey.
Shang-Chi 2 will be released on February 14, 2025, according to a Reddit post in the MarvelStudiosSpoilers community. If that timeframe is accurate, Shang-Chi 2 will be included in Marvel’s Phase 6, also known as The Multiverse Saga.
Between Fantastic Four on November 6, 2024, and Avengers: The Kang Dynasty on May 2, 2025, a movie slated for release in Winter 2025 was included in the Phase 5 and 6 timeline presented by Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige at SDCC.
The upcoming Shang-Chi movie may have significant effects on the upcoming huge Avengers epics as Earth’s Mightiest Heroes get ready for their clash with Kang the Conqueror.
