Even though Marvel Studios hasn’t released any concrete Shang-Chi 2 updates, something is clearly going on behind the scenes for Liu to be able to state that the movie is still happening. If that is indeed the plan, there are two approaches to get Shang-Chi 2 to land somewhere in The Multiverse Saga. As of right now, there are four dates on Marvel Studios’ schedule over the next few years with untitled projects slotted in there.
If Shang-Chi 2 starts filming in early 2025, the sequel could easily land on the February 13, 2026, slot, presuming that post-production doesn’t get dragged out for too long. However, if Shang-Chi 2 began principal photography in Q3 or Q4 of 2025, Liu’s film could be released on November 6, 2026. Both the 2026 dates are dependent on Shang-Chi 2 also having its script ready, which is unclear at this point.
