‘Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings’ hits theatres today

Marvel Studios' "Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings" has arrived at Blockbuster Cinemas, and all branches of Star Cineplex in Dhaka.

The film, directed by Daniel Destin Cretton, marks Marvel's first project with an Asian lead, starring Chinese-Canadian actor Simu Liu as the martial arts superhero.

Set after the events of "Avengers: Endgame" (2019), the movie follows Shang-Chi, who is drawn into the clandestine Ten Rings organisation, and is forced to confront the past he thought he left behind.

The film also stars Awkwafina, Meng'er Zhang, Fala Chen, Florian Munteanu, Benedict Wong, and Michelle Yeoh.

Hong Kong star Tony Leung plays Wenwu, Shang-Chi's father and the main villain in the movie. Cretton has directed the film from a screenplay he wrote with Dave Callaham and Andrew Lanham.

If you decide to go out to movie theatres, do not forget to wear a mask.
