The fact that Simu mentioned Wong as the first Asian superhero in the MCU just made my crush on him triple in size!
Simu is the second MCU celebrity so far who is extremely passionate when talking about his character and the Marvel universe. 1st would be Tom Hiddleston.
I think Elizabeth Olsen is extremely passionate as well
@@yourhoe6665 not rlly lol
@@mysticalmaniac2 she’s shown more enthusiasm then Tom in my opinion.
@@yourhoe6665 she shows more enthusiasm about scarlet witch than he does about loki but Tom has way more mcu knowledge than her
@@ariyansingh4311 they said passion not knowledge.
This is why diversity is the way forward. Every culture has wonderful stories to share.
Thank you, I agree, as long as everyone is represented then what's the problem...
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Hear hear!
The problem comes when you force it in
@@samdilophosaur9787
Are saying saying this is forced or are you speaking in general?
@@BrothaBeige88 oh I’m speaking generally. Shang-Chi is a great movie, and it’s partially because it wasn’t made to pander to any group of people. It was just made to be a good movie rather than a vehicle for social politics
I hope Tom Holland hears that Simu Liu wants to crossover with him to teach his Spider-Man martial arts
As much as im glad theres an asian superhero, im more happy he isnt just all about kungfu fighting. Him using the ten rings brings in more coolness than just being a good fighting hero.
Kim's Convenience binge watching gonna blow up after this movie
And the next future projects he'll be in.
Already started😏
Didn't it get cancelled and ended abruptly too?
I was so devastated when I found out that they weren’t bringing it back I thought we were going to have another season🥲😭
BRO!
I just realized this is an in person interview
Hahahaha
What is that??
@@kwfown maybe he thought it was Virtua in the first place .
In 2021? 😱😅
I think maybe they got tested then they did the interview
"20% equity" 😂yep he was definitely an accountant.
I'M very happy for simu getting this role!!
HE'S SO ADORABLE IM GONNA CRY😭
I like his definition of super heroes. He's a fan
YES i love his take on it too
What a well-spoken man Simu is! This is quite refreshing from what we see/hear now
I hope this isn't the last we've seen Shang-Chi. Also there is a Marvel character who is Filipina named Pearl Pangan a.k.a. Wave. Hoping to see her in the MCU.
He’ll probably be in a future avengers movie. Probably not avengers 5, but possibly 6
Def won’t be the last, he’s here to stay.
Really there is a filipina character in marvel???
But wait is it hero or just sidekick??
@@dexterpeligro2453 Who the heck is the Filipino character?
@@aviram7129 i search who is the filipina character and its wave
Not a tokenize character am surprised
Much success to Simu. God bless the Asian community...
AMEN
I can't wait to take my boy to see this. This is going to be his first superhero movie. I hope it goes well for a 5 year old. I think I'm more excited than he will be. P.S. That little boy in the video made me tear up.
4:38 his laugh felt so genuine, like, the media always gotta mention how sexy the star actor looks shirtless, I'll bet you he never expected to get these remarks, then he realized he's in the show biz, and this is what they do xD
this is probably the purest interview in the world
This is the first interview I've seen with this fellow, and he seems so NICE! What a pleasant person!
Love this guy!!!
I'm happy that simu get the role of shang chi he is such a talented actor well deserved.
Gotta say his Canadian humbleness is so endearing !!
I love how you can tell he is a huge fan of these movies just like us
The way he air-quotted Wong lol
He's right, technically Benedict Wong did play the first in a Western superhero movie. But like Simu says, again it was the sidekick, not the lead.
Omg he's so sweet I love him sm
I can’t wait to see and buy this movie. Congratulations to semu
I have not even seen this guy in movie..he already has become my favorite ❤️
As a Canadian so proud of Simu Liu! :)
In a span of 5 hours this man has made his way into my heart. What😆😳
I love how they mentioned th Philippines🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
he has this bruce lee charm and humbleness, lets hope this restarts a bunch of chinese inspired movies and characters, not just in marvel but everywhere.
i love him already this is awesome
It broke into my top 5 list. Thank gosh I gave it a shot rather than caving into all the bad opinions surrounding it upon its release. 🔥
Humble - thats what i hear from him.
So dope seeing Simu getting all this attention
And behold, Simu's an Avenger now
im so proud and happy
I am Filipino part Chinese and Spanish and I hope in the future, other than Raya and the Last Dragon, there will be a Southeast Asian Marvel superhero.
What a cool dude
Loved the film, had some of the best fight scenes in any superhero movie I’ve seen
Have to see it again
Love him already 🤪
Down to earth and great personality
First showing tickets bought. Bringing all my under represented kids
Oop she mentioned "Filipino" Hello out there to fellow Filipinos!! hahahaha
hey
Love his personality!
Going To See!!
💯
Our Modest Ontario Home Buoy Simu! You ROCK!!
He is a cutie tho 😍😉 and btw just like I always tell everyone “I see fine in every race. Asian, white, black, Hispanic, whatever” 5:41 -MCU fan who is a black woman
Just realised how much this movie is going to mean to my son and daughter.
Love this guy
absolutly amazing interviewer
Asian-American? ahem. Asian-Canadian. Nice interview though, Simu and I also appreciated the interviewer.
Dont have interest about Shang Chi even before. But knowing its Jung i mean Simu then Im sold
I love this guy
5:16 okay...you were MY dream guy when I was 12....
ask, and you shall be given.
John Krasinski as Mr Fantastic fingers crossed then. He asked to be Mr Fantastic after seeing fanart so fingers crossed.
Simu Liu should do more interviews and i wanna so collaborative interviews with other phase 4 actors.
Can’t wait to see this movie 🍿
After watching this I was thinking to myself are there any Persian superheroes out there or not, so I did a little search and there was a few, and out of those few characters none of them really looked Persian. None of them were presented in a none offensive and truthful way. That's what media has done to us.
I really hope companies like Marvel and DC start giving attention to left out cultures and countries like Iran which have a fulfilled history of great epic stories and characters but yet there is no trace of them in the mainstream media.
As simu liu said all cultures need to be shown and seen in the big screen.
I believe cause each and every one of them brings a new feeling to the world of the movies and a new story.
a broken clock is right twice a day
I would love to see Simu in CRA 2. I want myself to go insane on whether I love Henry, Harry, or Simu more🥴
thislooks good...can't wait...
proud Filipino here
YES
The producers on Kim’s connivence are crazy, you have star about to blow up that can promote your show, and you decide now to cancel it? Crazy
I bet simu availability played a big role in that ...homie about to blow up on a global scale.
@@smosmo4617 Naw, he even said in his post about the cancellation that he was fully prepared to be back for season 6
@@smosmo4617 he wanted to come back for season 6. He even tried to step up to the plate and write the stories but the original producers said no and the only script writers in the room were non asians who couldn't properly write the stories. Season 3 to 5 weren't even as good as season 1 and 2.
He even wanted to flesh out the story line for his character. But it didn't happen.
There are rumors there will be a spinoff with Shannon.
His head is off center from the poster....ahhh OCD
Lmaooo
Can you imagine the amount of stories that will come from China and India?
After that i wanna to hear about Don Lee first feeling when joined MCU in Eternals, lol
This guy is badass
I official Stan
What is Jung doing here?
Jung, did appa know u come for interview?
I thought it was funny that she brought up calendars, seeing as he was April 2019 for the Wong Fu Productions Bachelorette calendar. :D
2:05 The Filipina superhero Darna has been around for decades, Marvel needs to learn from her!
I just want good superhero movies regardless of ethnicity, that's all I care about. However, I 'am happy for those that care about that sort of thing.
Is the story good, is the character believable? Then simple awesome regardless of who they are!
😃😃😃😃😃
He's really good on interviews. But I don't agree with him, he IS hot.
Now that We have Shang Chi from Marvel we need more like KarateKid(Val Amorr) or The Totally Awesome Hulk etc Lady Shiva Orphan aka Cassandra Cain
I hope there's a filipino cast of marvel character superhero...
Jung strikes again!
NOOOOOO when he said that nobody would like any asian guys because they're typically the dorky guys nope nope I say this and I mean this IS THAT ASIAN GUYS ARE THE BEST AND NOBODY CAN SAY NO (My spelling could be wrong but you know I don't care)
🤘
Oh c'mon, this year's *Mortal Kombat* and *G.I. Joe: Snake Eyes* that's also Asian led blockbuster movie were like, *"Bruh, really?!"*
@Gia Gia Yes, let's limits these Asian and minority people lead to just only for marvel craps. Really?! Stop being racist.
TambrangLah kau simu...mana sdh.tu kantalan saya yg kau suri dulu itu😣😣😣😝
"Black" and "Asian" are categories created by the United States, where they do not even exist in the outside world. What about a Latino superhero in a leading role? A Lebanese superhero? And Indian superhero? A Uyghur superhero? And Inuit superhero? Where the hell does it end? Not until we have superheroes for every single ethnic group on the planet? What about a mixed superhero, who looks just like me? Do I get my representation too?
The fight for everyone to get representation is not going to happen overnight but I think we should be happy that marvel is willing to put out an Asian superhero film in times where Asian hate is a serious problem. I agree with what you are getting at but I believe the US moving on from their "black and white" diversity is a very good start.
It ends when the US stop putting people in boxes. Face it, they are the major cultural force on Earth. So this movie and Black Panther can be seen as reaction to that. Before, it was just white faces in super hero movies. That's all anybody saw. Suck it up cupcake.
Hope marvel introduces a south Asian character in future 🙏🏽
There's one in eternals
I hope he plays Kenan Kong in DC next!
shang chi willl kill the corona virus with 10 rings...lets goooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
AGENTS OF ATLAS!
Shang-chi is awesome and all but MARVEL I am waiting for an Indian herooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You have one.....BahuBali :-)
Miss Marvel has already been cast
@@kezziekz she is pakistani not indian
Has everyone forgotten Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan?
first asian american super hero? what they in?
Green hornet is the closest thing but even in that Bruce Lee plays a sidekick
2:40 did he mention about that broken clock statement same as cod character 🤔
I see him as a live action Goku for a live action Dragon Ball Z movie. Anyone agree?
lol he's definitely more goku than the last dude...
@@360.Tapestry lol totally
lol
They have to always involve race somehow holy shit
Heroes don't have to be a certain race for you to be connected to them
No one said that
I wonder if they are different race to you ,you would have no problem right ,right ? 😥
they don't have to be. but almost all of them are white, so do you feel left out because one or two aren't?
No one said that. White people who live in Asia get excited when they see themselves on Asian TV. Nothing wrong with that.
Jackie Chan would have been a better choice. Just saying.
Jackie Chan is way too old for the role. Shang chi is supposed to be in his 20s. Let someone younger have opportunities
Yeah... Black Panther movie was a breakthrough... NOT! Give me a break - it's a movie about African tribe - it didn't help black youngsters to deal with everyday struggle more than hip-hop artists did!
You thought a movie was gonna save the Black community 😒? Did you not see how important the representation was to the little Black kids who were fighting Cancer when they got visits from Chadwick Boseman himself? Did you see all the little boys dressed as Black Panther and the little girls dressed as the Dora Milaje?
Now not only the black panther movie but Chadwicks life itself provide inspiration to many 😭
