"It’s about goddamn time" Simu Liu on returning for Doomsday

"I’m kidding, I’m kidding. Oh, shit. I’m in trouble now. Let the record show that I was just kidding. \[...\] What an incredible call to get. I experienced kind of many waves of excitement. First getting that call, and then learning who else was going to be there." from [NYCC '25](https://www.thepopverse.com/movies-avengers-doomsday-simu-liu-shang-chi-legend-ten-rings-mcu-timeline-sequel-release-date-new-york-comic-con-2025-nycc)

And it isn’t for a 20 second cameo or to be vaporized right away.

rubyschnees2025-11-11 19:57

ugh don't even get me started on what marvel zombies did to her...

When the Young Avengers show up and they're on their 30s and 40s

_Levitated_Shield_2025-11-11 21:20

That depends. Have you seen Rudd and Sam Jackson?

Ubergoober1662025-11-11 21:40

Stranger Things all over again

Live_Angle46212025-11-12 23:33

Why people have such issue with their age? Nobody has even called them Young Avengers

My life for auir.

I used to think they were saying “my life for hire.”

carlitospig2025-11-12 01:26

You mean Ket Beeshup.

Edit: speaking of which, who is in charge of flairs? We have so many missing.

blissed_off2025-11-12 18:50

You can’t hear written words.

Me: “Ket Beeshop”

carlitospig2025-11-12 20:05

I literally can’t read it any other way now. 😭😆

blissed_off2025-11-12 21:01

I absolutely love Yelena. She has to call her Ket Beeshup every time. It’s not Kate, it’s not Bishop, it’s always Ket Beeshup.

carlitospig2025-11-12 22:43

‘Do you keep saying my name to point out that you know it?’

‘Yes.’

And then the whole elevator fight scene? Seriously it’s become my favorite holiday rewatch tradition.

Poku1152025-11-12 19:22

You all have too much hope lmao

Fastball822025-11-13 16:40

Now give me Iman Vellani as well & that would complete the package.

My fear with the general audience

Ubergoober1662025-11-11 21:42

Why does everyone assume the general audience is all brain dead? Yea, it's been a while, but Shang Chi was a pretty popular movie when it came out. I doubt anyone will have completely forgotten him just because they're not chronically online.

Eric_T_Meraki2025-11-11 22:36

You wouldn't believe how many people I've met who thought Wang and the guy in the Eternals were the same character. The same with no one remembering Bradley and Joaquin were in the TFATWS, or even Kamala having her own show. Don't put anything past the general audience.

carlitospig2025-11-12 01:30

People should watch it for his bestie alone. I love when I see her in other projects.

Kronman5902025-11-13 06:23

Youre comparing a bunch of side characters to the literal poster main character of an entire movie. Its like assuming people would forget captain marvel when her 2nd movie came around

dsneybuf912025-11-11 23:45

I fear too many casual Marvel fans decided to skip/procrastinate _Shang-Chi and The Legend of The Ten Rings_ because Shang-Chi's lack of a second canon appearance makes it seem unimportant to them.

carlitospig2025-11-12 01:31

I’m currently on a ‘complete timeline’ rewatch (it’s part of my pre holiday vibe self care) and I skip it every time. I skip a lot actually. Like Spider Man 2. I loathe Jake’s portrayal and it doesn’t really impact later storylines so it’s no big loss.

leevo2025-11-11 23:50

General public overall is pretty dumb these days. And it’s not crazy to think when the majority are second screening

carlitospig2025-11-12 01:29

Because it wasn’t very popular. It’s kinda like if they made Eternals 2, except not quite that bad.

whyspezdumb2025-11-11 22:24

Shang-Chi, Thor, and Captain Marvel.

I feel like everyone else can just sit back and watch the fireworks if a beat-down is all that is needed.

Popular_Material_4092025-11-11 22:37

His movie came out in 2021. His next appearance is a little over 5 years later. It should not be that long

carlitospig2025-11-12 01:28

Sadly he was on the tail end of the MCU golden age and kinda slipped under the radar.

Spider-man20982025-11-12 13:08

Coulda been the first of the new, instead he’s the last of the old.

SammyIssues2025-11-12 06:48

Imagine if Tony Stark was introduced in Iron Man 1.. and the popped up for his second appearance in the first avengers movie. That’s what this feels like for me. Same for so many of the new characters they introduced.

I hope this movie delivers. I’m excited.

Being sidelined for 5 years is the theme of the multiverse saga.
