Synopsis
San Francisco valet Shaun is really Shang-Chi, the trained-from-childhood son of Wenwu — the millennia-old, ring-wielding leader of the Ten Rings organization and the real Mandarin the MCU had long teased. Pulled back into his father's world alongside his sister Xialing and his best friend Katy, Shang-Chi confronts a family legacy of violence and unlocks the true nature of the rings.
