Marvel Studios has released the first teaser trailer for Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings.The teaser, which follows the release of the film's first poster, sees Simu Liu's Shang-Chi training in flashback montage as his father Wenwu reminds him of his true legacy. This leads to several intense martial arts sequences, including one aboard a subway and another featuring massive lion dogs, aka fu dogs.

Production on Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings went into full swing in 2019 when Marvel Studios hired director Destin Daniel Cretton and cast Simu Liu as the eponymous kung fu master. Filming began in February 2020 but was quickly halted due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which also led to several delays in the movie's release date.

Despite the setbacks, Liu promised in February 2021 that the forthcoming trailer is "gonna be so good when it comes out guys." When the poster was released, he then promised that the trailer would follow in a few weeks, but even he was surprised to see it arrive just moments later.

Simu Liu stars as Shang-Chi in Marvel Studios' Shang-Chi and The Legend of The Ten Rings. Shang-Chi must confront the past he thought he left behind when he is drawn into the web of the mysterious Ten Rings organization.

Directed by Destin Daniel Cretton and written by Daniel Callaham, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings stars Simu Liu, Tony Leung, Awkwafina, Michelle Yeoh, Jiang Nan, Meng'er Zhang. Ronny Cheng, Fala Chen and Jiang Len. The film arrives in theaters Sept. 3.
