Simu Liu's viral Shang-Chi tweet asking Marvel to talk about bringing the character to life is now on a Hollywood billboard for a social campaign. After starting his career as an extra and stuntman, Liu began gaining prominence on screen in 2015 with series regular roles in the Canadian crime drama Blood and Water and the acclaimed sitcom Kim's Convenience. The 32-year-old star would later land his breakout role as the titular hero in Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings.
The Marvel Cinematic Universe outing explored the origin stories of Shang-Chi as he is the descendant of Wenwu, the leader of the Ten Rings criminal organization and better known as the Mandarin around the world. Desperate to live a normal life, Shang-Chi abandons a mission his father sent him on and instead goes into hiding in San Francisco, though finds himself drawn back into his past when the Ten Rings emerge and come looking for him and his estranged sister. Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings proved to be another critical and commercial hit for Marvel Studios, hauling in over $432 million amidst the pandemic and receiving the highest MCU Cinemascore rating since the original Iron Man.
Twitterhas revealed Simu Liu's viral Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings tweet is now on a Hollywood billboard. The advertisement is part of the platform's new campaign encouraging users to tweet their hopes or goals into existence, with other celebrity examples used including Issa Rae, Demi Lovato and Patrick Mahomes, amongst others. Check out the billboard below:
Liu's viral Shang-Chi tweet became the talk of the town in the years that followed its posting as not only were there calls for Marvel Studios to explore its diverse roster of heroes but later for the star's actual casting in the role. Despite its popularity and the premonition-like nature of the post, Liu would admit in the lead up to Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings' release that he was ready to stop talking about it, jokingly referring to his response on the tweet after his casting addressing the funny nature of it. Though he may be ready to move on from the tweet, the billboard is still a sweet ode to the full circle story of his time in the role.
With the first Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings proving to be a major hit for the studio, Marvel is already forging on ahead with future plans for the character. Co-writer/director Destin Daniel Cretton is returning to write and direct the sequel, which Liu has teased he has begun pitching story ideas and larger MCU connections in comparison to its predecessor. In the meantime, audiences can catch up with or revisit Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings on Disney+ now.
