Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings [1] is finally hitting theatres this Friday! Starring Simu Liu [2], the film is making history as the first Marvel movie with an Asian lead [3] and it's set to debut in theatres for 45 days before it hits streaming services. However, it's still unclear if it'll debut exclusively [4] on Disney+ or other video-on-demand services. Disney+ also has yet to announce an official premiere date, but if the streaming platform plans to release it exactly after 45 days, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings will be available to stream in mid-October.

The film follows martial artist Shang-Chi as he gets pulled back into the fold of the Ten Rings organisation and confronts the legacy of his father and the organisation's leader, Wenwu. It also stars Tony Leung, Awkwafina, Fala Chen, Meng'er Zhang, Florian Munteanu, Ronny Chieng, and Michelle Yeoh, and marks a major moment for APIA representation on screen.
