Following the poster release, Marvel Studios surprised the birthday boy Simu Liu by dropping Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings teaser trailer. It shows that the skilled martial artist is living his own normal life for the past ten years away from the Ten Ring organization. He is trained to be an assassin at a young age by his father, Wenwu.

After a decade, Shang-Chi's father calls him to join the organization again and he denies it, thus, the conflict starts. The video contains shadow fight scenes with mask Assasin Death Dealer, classic jungle fights, tournament battles, and big lion-type animals called Fo dogs. There is also a hint at his hyperactive powers. The teaser ends with Shang-Chi doing his iconic trademark pose from the comics. Check out Shang-Chi and the Legen of the Ten Rings teaser trailer below.
