The Shang-Chi runtime has been revealed, and Marve🐠l's next origins story tꦡops the two-hour mark.

As revealed by US cinema chain 's new listing for the movie, Shang-Chi has been given a PG-13 rating (standard for a Marvel♑ movie) and will be 2 hours 12 minutes in length. 

That puts it on par with 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:X-Men: First Class (not MCU, mind), longer than 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Doctor Strange by two minutes, and shorter than 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Captain America: The Winter Soldier by four minutes. Shang-Chi will not quite be the longest MCU origins story, being beaten by 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Black Panther and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Incredible Huk, which both have runtimes of 2 hours 15 minutes. Of course, that's nothing compared to the 3 hours 2 minutes of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Avengers: Endgame.

Shang-Chi has a lot to pack into its runtime. Not only are we going to be introduced to the title hero, played by Simu Liu, but also the character's father, the villainous leader of the Ten Rings, The Mandarin, portrayed by Tony Leung. Other new cast members of the MCU include ꧅Akwafina, Michelle Yeoh, and Fala Chen.

Then there's the matter of Doctor Strange's sidekick Wong, played by Benedict Won🐓g, and Hulk ꩵvillain Abomination both showing up to fight in some sort of tournament. There's also word that Jade Xu, who played a Widow in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Black Widow, could show up. That's quite the MCU crossover, especially as Abomination is expected to appear in the upcoming 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Disney Plus series She-Hulk.

Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings is set to arrive in theaters on September 3. While we wait, make sure you're up to date with the MCU with our guide to 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Marvel Phase 4.
