No word on if the film will include this ability. “Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings” will premiere February 12th 2021.
There will be four TV series which will be part of the new Disney+ channel launching in November 2019 and in Summer 2021 will be Marvel’s first animated series ‘What if?’ which will see Jeffrey Wright as The Watcher along with a load of characters that are still alive after Phase 3 and will also include Jeff Goldblum too.
