There's a sad reason Tony never wanted to play a father on-screen before as he has said that he didn't want to be reminded of his own father's treatment of him when he was a kid. So yeah, it was special that he finally wanted to play the role of a father in this film.

[@ellithenerd]

Oh damn, that makes this even more poignant as a role then, because Wen Wu totally neglected his kids after his wife died 😭

[@tarmaque]

@@ellithenerd Indeed. It also shows how personal tragedy can break a person, and divert them from the things in life that are really important. In the end we find he's one of the better Marvel antagonists, because he isn't really evil. Just broken.

The black community got black panther which legit felt like a cultural movement in the route of pride of heritage and culture.... Now the asian community has shang chi. As an asian american , i can't begin to describe the pride and tears that came over me having a movie not white washed. The overall action sequences reminded me so much of all the movies i used to watch like jackie chan, jet li, donni yen, and the OGs from crouching tiger hidden dragon. I abs loved hearing chinese and seeing the sub titles , especially from a Marvel film. I'm so proud that young asian kids will be able to look at a lead roll as the hero...thank you marvel.

[@kimberlyross6688]

As a black woman, I agree with you! I'm so happy for you and the Asian and Asian-American community! Like you indicated in your opening, I felt such pride and joy watching Black Panther, so I am so happy that Asian kids and adults can see themselves represented as superheroes and in positive ways! Plus, this movie is straight FIRE! I loved every minute of it!

[@kiabtoomlauj6249]

I've been in America since the late 1970s; got here as a 12 year-old. I could count all the well scripted, well produced, and well directed movies --- with sufficiently large budgets --- starring an Asian American man or Asian American woman leading a credible cast of actors.... with the fingers of one hand. About 99.95% of all movies I've seen starring Asians in serious leading roles have been Asians from Asia, mostly from China and Japan. So, after close to 45 years of living in America, this is a welcomed change in Hollywood. Whether Marvel makes money or not is beside the point; the point is, America is an incredibly diverse society. All portrays of heroes can't be just White males, even though White males think that's how reality should always be like "until you have real talents" from other groups, too.... The reason I said "whether this makes money or not" is that MOST movies don't make money, whether they are big or small budgeted movies. The few that make tons of money are made through well established franchised movies, using DC and Marvel characters. But if you allow for Asians and other ethnic America to make movies that flop, like White people do it ALL THE TIME, there will never be a time for ethnic Americans to do leading roles, because there's this prejudice of "They are not bankable." Yeah, how many movie roles did Jennifer Aniston or Robert Downey Jr. got to star in THAT FLOP before they started making good returns on their lead roles? Many! All kinds of people should have those opportunities, too.... not just White men and women actors and actresses...

[@jz9132]

Beautifully said - thank you to Marvel, Kevin Feige, and fans like you :-)

i feel so happy for black and east asian communities when these films came out, seeing your own upbringing on screen is another feeling. i hope sometime south asians got something like that to feel something like that 😩

Jacqueline is amazing at her job, especially the way she was able to ask thoughtful questions and allow the cast to let their hair down. Very organic and lots of fun, like old friends hanging out. More of this please.

[@jenneh.s649]

I want to see their sibling relationship. I really wish they show Xialing not just beat Shang Chi up physically but also roast him endlessly. It's there, they just need to explore it.

[@jsl8461]

I feel she's too embittered at Shangqi to have that kind of jocular relationship with him. Not like Shuri and T'Challa, which was a comedic relationship in Black Panther. I wouldn't be surprised if in future iterations of the Shangqi / Xialing relationship goes deeper into a dramatic direction. Xialing has a lot of reason to be angry at her brother. Some of it is his fault, but not all of it -- some is due to parental favoritism and asymmetric parental expectations, a bit like Thor and Loki. That sets up a *very* rich background for dramatic storytelling. Also, they are brother and sister, so that dynamic is going to play out differently than Thor and Loki.

I used to think representation was "corny" but I've since realized the world we live in. It matters soooo much. You have Westernized/Anglicized Asians finally saying they're "proud to be Asian" because of like one popular Asian music artist, for example.

[@1stHalf]

That's how I felt because if we truly made it, we'd see an Asian 007 or something like that. I thought this and Black Panther was just pandering to the outcries, but in a way these movies also feel like they matched the history of the cultures we came from. But I am waiting for Simu to be the next 007. That's when I'll say we truly made it. Until then, these are fine representations.

[@Nazaba09]

I’m a disabled Latina and I used to think it didn’t matter until I realized people thought I was middle eastern and they said I looked ‘too white to be Latina’. Now I’m tired of people expecting me to look like an Indian. We need more White Latino representation.

[@tarmaque]

What I got from this movie is that they were proud to be Asian _Americans_ on film. (I know Simu is Canadian, but the principal still applies) The idea that they are an important part of the patchwork quilt that is North America, and that they are proud to be _both._ Also to show the experience of Asian _American_ family life, and how wonderful and full it can be. The same way that _Kim's Convenience_ showed us that immigrants of all flavors are what make our society great. They're the yeast in our beer, so to speak.

[@supahsmashbro]

@@tarmaque Well this clearly isn't an example of a "wonderful" family, it caters to the "patriarchal, oppressive tyrant" Asian father and the tantalizing Eastern beauty wife - catering to the white man's fantasy and ongoing sexual imperialism of Asia. I do agree that immigrants quite frankly CARRY America. Like.....HARD. Unbelievably so. Crummy representation at the end of the day. But crumbs are a start I suppose.

It takes the multiverse of the MCU to a whole other level, not just one of space and aliens.

[@grammarnazi12]

Me too!! Being raised in Canada, I grew up watching TVB dramas but never really watched HK cinema - 無間道 was the only HK movie title I knew growing up, and Tony Leung and Andy Lau were cemented as such legends in my mind. The second half of your comment reminds me of that Bong Joon-ho quote - "Once you overcome the 1-inch-tall barrier of subtitles, you will be introduced to so many more amazing films." I'm glad Marvel didn't shy away at all from the subtitles in Shang-chi - I hope this encourages more people like your friends to step out of their comfort zone and enjoy films in other languages!

[@lonnieturnerii1874]

Every word they say about Tony Leung is legit. I've been a fan since the first time I saw Hard Boiled back in the mid-90s and have watched a great deal of his work since. I'd put him up there with Brando, Alain Delon, Toshiro Mifune, Chow Yun Fat, Max Von Sydow -- actors who ooze charisma and gravitas and masterfully inhabit every character they perform. As a long-time American fan of HK cinema, I'm excited for any filmgoers here in the US who are just now learning about him, as they'll certainly find themselves itching to see more of him. Fortunately he has a rich and extensive filmography to jump into and enjoy.

[@MADEbySOUL]

I didn't know how much expectations and hope I had for this movie until I was in theaters. I saw the love and care Marvel gave to Black Panther. I saw how they allowed that cast and crew to shine but didn't have the same hope for us because "Asians are quiet and should be grateful". As a person who never saw eastern asians in leading roles, something in me rose when I saw it in a Japantown movie theater. This theater was PACKED with different asian ethnicities. Together, we experienced a top budgeted Hollywood film starring asian actors who dealt with loss, self discovery and navigating one's place in society. They dealt with all that and not once was their race or language the center for the character identity or used as character development. For the new generation coming, this is for you. For those born before, this is for that child or teenager in your memories. Stay safe everyone and remember together we can stop asian hate and Black Lives Matter.

I’ve been watching Tony Leung since I was 7 years old. His first acting career was in Hong Kong television series that was very popular called The Duke where he played a poor pettler and scam the Manchurian Royal guards that he was from a royal family and snuck inside the Chinese Emperor palace and became very close friends with the prince. His acting skills was phenomenal! The television series was a hit on HKTVB ( Hong Kong Television Broadcast ) he was extremely funny and comical. He used to be known as the funny actor not the serious actor. This is until he started to get into Hong Kong movie industry and got into more serious drama, love and action movies. Tony Leung also tried to be a Hong Kong pop singer in the 90s but that didn’t work out because his vocals weren’t there. Tony Leung has come a long way like Chow Yun Fat. American Hollywood movie industry is slowly opening up to Asian actors but it’s going to take a while because racism was still apparent in the 70-late 90s. Just look at Star Wars. That should tell you. Tony Leung is on another top level of acting that not even many American actors can even top his skills. It’s only a matter of time when more Hong Kong actors/actresses get noticed. Look how long Michelle Yeoh got noticed.

Jacqueline Coley was a great moderator/interviewer in this, asking great questions to the Shangchi cast

[@exas4791]

When I was a kid, Tony Leung was so suave in TV series The Duke of Mount Deer.

One of the best interview. Interviewer’s really knowledgeable. I enjoyed it! All the casts of Shang Chi are amazing! Enjoyed watching the movie from beginning to end.

I must give a huge compliment to production team and decision makers to choose all of these great actors and actress for casting shang chi. Thank you so much on director effort for persuading Tony leung to decide play his character wen wu. And all the young actors / actress were giving their best performance and passion inside the movie. Good job.

HERO and IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE are essential.

These actors are some of the most real people off screen. So enjoyable to watch them interact.

I love this interviewer and her rapport with the cast! It's like they're all friends even before the interview starts. And such great questions. I was sad when the interview came to an end--want more of this group! Also

I'm surprised nobody suggested the fight we've always wanted to see in live action... ... The Hulk vs. Wolverine!

[@TommyLandon]

Especially the one where he eats Logan, but Logan burst out of his stomach.
