News that Shang-Chi will arrive on the streaming platform this autumn comes after it became the second-highest grossing film since Covid-19 shut down theatres in the United States.
With nearly $177m in domestic box office earnings, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings is currently only trailing Scarlett Johansson-starrer Black Widow, which earned $183.2m.
Directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, Shang-Chi is slated to overtake Black Widow after the former clocked $21.7m in earnings this past weekend (18-19 September).
