From director Destin Daniel Cretton and Marvel Studios, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings is the superhero origin story for a guy named Shaun (Simu Liu), who’s living in San Francisco and working as a parking valet with his best friend Katy (Awkwafina) when he is suddenly faced with the past he thought he left behind. Pursued by his estranged father (Tony Leung) and needing the help of his sister Xialing (Meng’er Zhang), if they are to defeat the mysterious Ten Rings organization, Shaun must push past his childhood trauma and embrace every part of himself, in order to fully step into his power as Shang-Chi.

During this 1-on-1 interview with Collider, which you can both watch and read, Chinese actress Fala Chen (who plays Li, the devoted mother of Shang-Chi and Xialing, and a skilled martial artist in her own right) talked about almost not getting the call when the offer for her role came in during her honeymoon, why she fell in love with this character, how her family feels about her joining the MCU, what she enjoys about her fighting style in the film, and the importance of family, in both the story and in real life.
