“I’ll single out [Ms. Marvel star] Iman Vellani. First of all, she’s a fellow Canadian. She’s just so great. The few times I’ve met her, and all the conversations we’ve had, she’s just such a wonderful human being,” Liu revealed to the magazine. “I’m so excited to get to play opposite any and all of the amazing people that have been introduced into the universe. But she’s just… I don’t know, I guess she’s really just stuck out to me as someone who just absolutely loves it, and loves the world, loves the position that she’s been put in. It kind of, I guess, reminds me of myself in a way—she was such a big Marvel fan from before too. And it’s just surreal to her too, every bit of a as much of a dream come true for her as it is for me.”

Shang-Chi Star Simu Liu Thinks He’ll Appear In Avengers: The Kang Dynasty

During the same interview with Men’s Health, Liu revealed that he’s “pretty sure” that his Marvel hero will show up in Avengers: The Kang Dynasty.

“Yeah, I’m pretty sure I’m gonna be in it too,” Liu revealed. “Beyond that, I really don’t know, and I don’t want to know before it’s absolutely ready. If there’s anything I’ve learned in this industry, especially with Marvel, it’s that things are changing, always in flux, and you really can’t be sure that something is going to happen until you’re on set and you’re about to do the scene. Even then, scenes get reshot, things get retooled, elements get added in post-production with visual effects and everything. So in between, it’s been a really fulfilling journey for me to get to do projects like Barbie—which are separate from that identity of Shang-Chi—and to really get to spread my wings as an artist. But if and when that call comes in… of course, a sequel is going to happen. Of course, Kang Dynasty is going to happen. When that call comes, I will happily show up, read whatever I need to read, do whatever I need to prepare. But until then, I think the less I know the better.”

Vellani is set to appear next in this November’s The Marvels, while Simu Liu has been waiting on the bench for his return in what will more than likely be Avengers: The Kang Dynasty.
