Simu Liu's Shang-Chi may have ten powerful rings at his disposal to blam the baddies to oblivion, but the latest superhero on the block is pretty worried for the Avengers. The actor took to Twitter to share a picture of a beefy and muscular Jonathan Majors played Kang the Conqueror in 'Loki'. The Multiverse Saga officially ends with two Avengers movies, 'Kang Dynasty' and 'Secret Wars', and Majors is slated to play a key role as the antagonist.

"bro the Avengers are straight up effed," Simu Liu said as he shared Majors' photo on Twitter. The still was from 'Creed III' starring Michael B Jordan, another MCU alum. While it is unclear if Majors will be playing the son of Clubber Lang (Rocky's opponent in 'Rocky III'), there has been buzz about his involvement in the project.

Is Shang-Chi in the upcoming Avengers movies?

The good news is that Shang-Chi returns in the Avengers, but in its typical way of keeping things close to the vest, Marvel Studios hasn't hinted which of the two movies he appears in. The fact that he mentioned the Avengers in his Twitter post surely shows that he is part of the Earth's Mightiest Heroes going forward, but for now, there's no concrete answer to whether he appears in 'Kang Dynasty' or 'Secret Wars'.

From a sequel standpoint, Destin Daniel Cretton who helmed 'Shang-Chi and The Legend of the Ten Rings' is roped in for 'Kang Dynasty' and that meant a second standalone Shang-Chi movie will take some time. On Majors' front, speculations are rife that he might be the villain in 'Secret Wars' as well. The original ‘Secret Wars’ storyline was explored in a twelve-issue comic book crossover limited series published from May 1984 to April 1985 by Marvel Comics. In the story, the mysterious being known as the Beyonder brought heroes and villains from Earth to a planet called Battleworld and pitted them against each other.
