Talking about the film, director Destin Daniel Cretton shared, "I didn't think I was ever going to get this job. I thought I would have a meeting to get in Marvel's ear what I would hope that this first Asian superhero could be, and what it would mean to me, but I also wanted to have the ability to express some of the pitfalls that I thought they should avoid." He also talked about the need to avoid stereotypical representation in the film. Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings: Simu Liu’s Superhero Film To Stream on Disney+ on November 12!
"They wanted to tell this story in the right way and look at every character as a multi-dimensional human being to try to avoid every stereotype that has been hovering around Asian and Asian American characters for a long time. So, it was really inspiring to go in and talk to them at that first meeting," he said.He further shared elements of the film that he found to be the most interesting.
"The complications of the relationship between Shang-Chi and Wenwu was what really interested me. What moved me from the comics was this complex relationship of a dad who trained his son to be a killer, and now his son is grown up, and he has to face him. That was really exciting to me, and it was the basis of the pitch that I gave them," he added.
