A sequel to Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings is still on the way, says star Simu Liu. The actor took to Threads to respond to a fan about Marvel’s lack of news on the sequel.

“I feel like Marvel has abandoned the Shang-Chi fan base. There has been no effort by the studio to get the sequel filming or even include the character in other Marvel films. Frustrating as hell,” a Marvel fan wrote. Liu quicklyreplied: “I proooomiss it’s happening.”

Following the response to the sequel update,Liu returned to Threadsto thank fans: “Really floored by all of the fan support for our little superhero movie that changed the world. It is an honour of a lifetime to entertain you guys. Thank you for tuning in, and I can’t wait to get back to making more!”
