You don’t realize how unique this is until they’re all actually being interviewed, and you realize you’ve never seen four Asian people sitting down for an interview about a super hero movie. It’s borderline jarring.
I remember when I first saw Black Panther, I was so struck by the same thing.
It still amazes me that CA and NY contains the highest Eastern Asian populations yet not more Eastern Asians actors are known.
The _Black Panther_ cast is an amazing group of actors and they produced a great movie, but this group of great actors just seem like a family.
Good point. I am Chinese-Canadian, growing up in an area with a pretty high proportion of Asian Canadians, and I had one of those moments a few years ago just buying a day planner in Staples (back when I still bought a hard copy version). The outside wrap had a photo of a casual stylish man of Asian heritage instead of a white person, and I realized how rare it is to see that in any office supply packaging or with any product that wasn't specifically Asian or from Asia. Such a shame it's taken this long, but it's good that things are moving forward. Though it feels like many steps back with the worldwide violent racist attacks on Asians - never felt unsafe before, all these years.
Omg YESSS! This movie made me misty so many times!
@@tarmaque I get what u mean. if you know about the wongfu / jk group, it’s very familial
What a fun cast and crew, they legit have chemistry.
they singing karaoke?
Good chemistry. Like families and friends
@@karenling2106 yes
We wanted a good movie and we got great casting along with representation along with it. The entire project was epic!
@@FadeSao , so true
Based off the chemistry, this looks to be a fun movie
It’s amazing!! Just got back from seeing it. Incredible movie.
Spoilers: its kinda great. And you'll see what they mean when they talk about Tony Leung. The guy is a legend...
It definitely is
Was so fun
You have no idea!
I'm Mexican American and I feel more connected with this movie than with any other marvel movie out there, I love it!!!
I loved the movie too. 5/5
why? Asian culture, Mexican culture are different.
family karaoke!
I get it, I'm Filipino (basically the Mexicans of Asians) and there are so many similarities between our culture, especially the whole family thing.
Mexican and Asian unite. Peace
Still can't believe that this is Meng'er Zhang's FIRST movie!!! 🤯🤯 *_AMAZING!!_*
Wow!!
Her father and mother are both CCP officials and “people’s representatives”. She became a committee member of the State Theatre association and Federation of Literary and Art Circles at very young age. And studied in UK and Russia for many years. So she is almost a politician and was never in any movie.
This was Simu Liu's first movie too I think
@@sheilahanindra3316 Though Simu have had extensive acting experience. I had seen him with Wong Fu production for years.
@@yoyozent This is the most bs comment I've seen. do you think 5g and vaccine are bad?
i like how awkwafina is giving all the credits to her cast when she herself is also the spotlight!! she deserves more compliments too
Simu talking about Tony Leung's eye acting, is just... Awesome
I WANT TO SEE A BTS OF THIS HOLY CRAPPP
It's hilarious😂😂😂
It's what I would've done if I was in Simu's shoes
There’s a whole video bout his eye acting by Accented Cinema haha
@@extra4542 yea I know that's why I thought it was awesome, cuz that means simu liu watched it too
By far the best interview with the cast, the chemistry was so present the host didn't need to do much at all.
@@alishavpthomas8136 I love Ali P host at BBCradio
@@alishavpthomas8136 BBC Radio 1 and Ali never go wrong tbh
Shang-Chi is definitely in my top 5 Marvel movies . Loved the whole experience
sisu
My top 3 MCU film.
Top 3
definitely top 3, maybe top 2
Top 4 for me.
As a person who had high expectations, because I saw the care they put into Black Panther, but highly prepared myself for the same race tropes and jokes, I highly recommend watching this! This film just made the movie about characters dealing with one's place in the world, personal moral dilemmas and how to navigate family. Topics that every human understands and deals with, they just talk it out in Mandarin. I was sad at the lack of ads/promotion since this movie stands above many first character movies.
Awesome.
BTW I have seen NOTHING but a constant stream of ads for this movie.
It might be due to your area?
Or maybe I am on YT too much and the Algorithm knows what I like so... it's been a never ending strugle to avoid all the ads and YT spoilery Thumbnails because I can't physically see the movie until this lockdown in the Sydney area ends.
MCU bros... give me the strength to last until October and a digital release. I am barely holding on. I refuse to watch a 'Cam Version' of the movie online.
I WONT DO IT.
PLEASE... SEND HELP... and chocolate.
Yup recommend watching it, too. Went in expecting to be a mediocre first film and left out with more smiles and surprises. Y’all will love the action fight scenes as well as the family dramas. It’s worth it and this one of those movies where the ratings got right
The movie did really well 430 Million at the box office it’s budget was 2 Million so it made its money back and keep in mind it’s during a pandemic it’s the highest grossing film during the pandemic time.
T Leung is a legendary actor , he setting an example for this young new comers
17:01 every introvert's conversation.
I love this casts! ♥️
Awkwafina: Why is he so angry at his son?
Simu: 👼 👼👼👼👼
Just gotta point out how the conversation flowed so well to the point where I thought “I haven’t heard the interviewer speak in a while🧐” goes to show how great their chemistry is. It’s kind of a weird feeling, they’re speaking like they’re not celebrities but regular people who went thru this amazing experience and got to talk about it also fangirling od. I love it
OMG, the chemistry of these casts was outstanding!!!
just the cast and their bond should tell you why this movie is different than any other marvel movie. i have been grinning through every single interview of theirs.
"Where's the table?" - Simu Liu 2021
its so sad that people are not promoting this movie much , its one of the best superhero movie of all time and it needs to be recognised
Due to covid. But still, i did well in box office, don't worry!
Simu alone was promoting the movie. I follow him on all social media platforms.
The trailers they had released were horrible
Most wholesome cast interview I’ve seen for this movie. The director and the three main youngest stars. These four people would be fun to work with in real life.
I hope Destin will film future Shang Chi movies. First one is amazing.
Don't see why not
I'm pretty sure he will, similar to ryan coogler's treatment of the black panther films, these guys clearly take great care in their craft and projects
Destin being Tonys number one fan is a mood 😭 why did daddy have to get scooped up by that soul sucker, I would have loved to see him in more Marvel movies
Maybe wenwu didnt die....im very sure this will not be the end of wenwu. Tony Leung's performance was outstanding and lots of pple just loved the villian.
Multiverse wenwu should do the trick
The multiverse is a thing now 😌😏
Maybe a disneyplus prequel series
Tony Leung remains the ultimate treasure this world has to offer us meagre humans and watching him in Shang-Chi was a COMPLETE DELIGHT. Him and the rest of the cast blew it right outta the water. Top 3 Marvel movie of all time (might be a tad biased cause I'm Asian but \_(ツ)_/)
Yes TL- a force to be reckoned with. So glad the word finally knows about Tony Leung.
I have to say it the chemistry is just to perfect. It make feel so bubble and warm.
omg meng’er and young’s wedding lmaoooo how she showed up to disneyland in hiking gear 😂
I could hang with this crew. Fun and intelligent folks.
Me too
And the director wearing cat shirt, even better.
That bamboo scaffolding sequence really gave me anxiety 😬 I’m acrophobic and watching that had my feet all tingly lol it was that believable and honestly amazing!
Same here. My legs were kicking and restless the entire time
It was crazy artistic, too!
I pretty much thought someone was going to die in that scene lol!
My entire body was clenched and weak at the same time during that sequence
I was remembering Jackie Chan's line in rush hour. "Don't worry, chinese bamboo is very strong" and then it broke and i was like " that is not an authentic chinese bamboo😂"
Just watching a few of the cast interviews and I am absolutely entranced by how charming and charismatic Meng’er Zhang comes across. She has such a wonderful warmth! I can’t wait to see her in more of anything!
It was superb, y’all. I had high expectation going into this movie after the hype and high reviews.. I was not disappointed. It blew my expectations away.. perfect dialogue, emotional story-arc, and eye-popping action sequences.. 11/10!
When cast members have this much fun off screen, the films probably gonna be fun too
destin has made some incredible films, i’m not surprised at all that this movie is as good as it is.
how i miss in-person interviews. plus they're all so cute!!!
As a Vietnamese American, I loved this movie so much. It is wonderful that the youth of the AA & AC community has someone to look up to. Growing up, I only had Trini Kwan to look up to as an Asian representation.
With the rise of hate for the Asian community last year due to COVID-19, it is great to see an upcoming for our Asian actors & actresses
14:15 the legend Tony Leung... Singing his praises
I will always be amazed and will always Salute the casting directors of Marvel for finding such talented actors with charming personalities that can have very amazing chemistry with each other on set or off set really 👏👏👏
Agreed, marvel casting has been amazing for the majority of their films.
Sarah Halley Finn.
She's the one responsible for the castings.
Believe it or not, she's turned down stars for certain MCU roles when they first auditioned, kept them in mind, and then approached them again years later for a different role, i.e. Chadwick Boseman as Black Panther instead of Drax the Destroyer.
@@TheLegendaryFolklore yes!! I've heard of how she described how Chadwick portrayed Drax with such dignity and poise like he portrayed a King!
Hence, Chadwick was and will always be the perfect choice for King T'Challa
Love the dynamic between them. And I love how the room turns silence (after so much laughs and gags) when they are talking about Tony Leung. They have so much respect to him.
5:02 I wouldn't mind a big bro like Simu, he seems like a chill guy
Thank you, Destin for giving my kids Asian characters to look up to.
Don't be like that. We still have Bruce Lee.
@@MrALenCar321 Bruce Lee died almost 50 years ago. Don't be like that.
OMG! This interview is really funny!!! The chemistry between them is REAL! is LEGIT!
I love the way they go silent when the director talking just like how the kids listen to their papa story 🥰
I love Meng’er authentic and organic personality.
Wow, great interview because they didn't talk about the same thing that all the other interviewers steer them to or they didn't make them play quiz or "who would be the most likely to" games. We actually learned more about them. Credit goes to both the members of the team opening up and to the interviewer for guiding the interview well. They deserve the success of this movie..
Saw it last night and am still buzzing over it. Great movie, gotta see it in theaters to do it justice. The fight scenes were unreal, and Tony Leung proves once again why he's a legend.
Scaffolding scene is hands down one the best action scenes in any comic book movie I've seen to date!!!
I totally agree. I was actually nervous for some of the characters even though I was fully aware that it was done using cgi :D it was amazing
Meng'er Zhang seems like such a sweetheart!!!!
Loved this whole interview and loved the movie!
Destin always seems like he's on the verge of slipping into a Jeff Bridges impersonation.
Wait omg this was perfect I was trying to figure out who he sounds like!
@@daynashley It's like if Destin tried to do a Christopher Walken impression, he'd end up sounding like Jeff Bridges.
Or Josh Brolin.
Oh yes. U are right
I have watched lots of interviews and this one really stands out. It was relaxed, fun, engaging and really showed the cast as themselves. Simu so full of charisma and very witty. Heck, the cast including the director is like one happy family.
Tony Leung stole the show for me.
Seriously! They mention his “eye acting,” and that’s no joke. His presence without saying a word is so consummate, just blow away by his performance. When you see a man fall in love during a fight base solely on what his eyes are doing… damn, that’s good!
I TOTALLY get why Simu wants Tony's eyes on him all the time I mean I had my eyes on Tony THE ENTIRE MOVIE.
The casting for this film is seriously impressive! I freaking love Meng'er in these interviews she is so sweet and innocent and the chemistry between them all has definite family dynamics. ❤
Such a fantastic cast !
It must feel really cool to work together with such good friendly people.
That Tony Leung-Simu acting tidbit was hilarious !
7:10 Meng'er does a crazy good impression of Awkwafina
I like how obviously they had chemistry and were having tons of fun making something great and meaningful. So enjoyable to watch them! :)
I cannot get over how amazing this movie was. Such an awesome job from everyone involved! Hope we get more from Destin & these actors.
Agree. Spectacular movie
The best interviews are when the interviewer just lets the actors say what they want to say so freely. I really appreciated that.
Also this cast is so amazing, I feel like they’re my best friends, I feel like they represent people in my life that I’ve been with. It’s because I can finally see people on screen who look like me and understand the asian immigrant western experience.
I'm so grateful for interviews like these when interviewers ask some really open questions and everybody gets their time to shine. It's so cool!
I loved how the characters actually spoke Chinese Mandarin with each other in the movie. It felt so natural.
its so good to know that the cast knows just how important this film is to people like us. when they started listing off their favorite scene and awkwafina mentioned the 'abc' scene while simu mentioned the whole household sequence, it made me feel just? kinda amazing to know that yeah- this movie means a lot to everyone really. all of those scenes reminded me of my mixed experiences with being asian and living in a second culture as well as my own. but most of all, shaun and katy's friendship in the film just made me miss my best friends :,( those small sequences (especially the shoes shot!) mean the world
oh and what destien daniel cretton said about having a character to dress up as on halloween? felt. but i did see a little boy dressed up as shang-chi this year, and that made me wanna tear up i swear
There is no table because Tony Leung Smashed it in the movie! He smashed that table as if it talked about his mama!! 💥
I haven’t had this much fun listening to a cast interact with each other since the Jumanji cast - sometimes I like to go back and watch their interviews for a good laugh. Can’t wait for the 10 rings sequel.
This movie was so phenomenally awesome..my family and I loved every minute of it and every aspect..would highly suggest this movie to anyone who hasn't seen it for sure
Spectacular movie. 10/10
So much fun listen to this interview.
Multi-lingual conversation is how it is in my family ( I meant with my siblings, cousins, elders…), with natural flow… whatever comes out of our mouths, even with the little kids too. Glad the movie shows case that.
This was one of my favorite interviews of the cast! 💞
Yes it’s a great interview and I basically came for the chemistry between the cast and to find out what they say about Tony Leung but OMG CAN WE TALK ABOUT DESTIN’S SHIRT? 👌🏼
This interview was so great. Thanks for this.
I loved this conversation! seriously what an amazing chemistry!
I love the dynamic of the cast. It’s so warm and chill. You can tell they all definitely had fun filming this. I only wish the interviewer was able to play off on their playfulness.
Love this interview so much! Wish there was more with the whole cast together in a room!!
Such great chemistry. They are so lovable and the movie is great!
I adored this movie!! Such a delight and I loved the chemistry and story!
I enjoyed this interview a lot! Loved it
That "ABC" moment in the movie, I so related to that when I saw that scene! Something pretty much only asian americans would understand lol
8:20 I love seeing Xiangling laugh.. 🤭😍
I remember seeing a video of Simu at disneyland and no one knew who he was! i would've immediately recognized him !
This is a great interview I actually liked the questions that were asked!
I love that the cast really enjoys eachothers company
This is an incredible movie so happy for the entire team
I love the chemistry and conversation. Love the shirt of the director too! 😺
This interview just gets better and better!!!
This looks like a nice therapy reunion for the cast.
This is so far the best interview I've ever seen
Im so absessed with this cast, I cant stop wathcing interviews with them! I want to see the adition tape from Meng'er Zhang so bad now!
Wow! They all get along so well!
Awesome interview! Loved hearing from everyone :)
The cast are all so adorable in this interview ☺️
I can't wait to see their future sequels to have more of their chemistry!!!🥰😁
This interview cracked me up!!! Lol this movie deserves all its success
Loved the flick. The cast is all amazing. The trailers did a great job of only revealing enough to hype an audience. Independent of the MCU this remains a fantastic movie on its own merits.
Backstreet boys is like the staple of Karaoke songs. Everyone knows the lyrics, everyone can sing a long.
I love Destin's accent. He sounds like an Asian Josh Brolin.
wow this is such a good interview they all loved it
This was an incredible experience watching Shang-Chi huge fan of the film and Simu
Loved the movie! Love even more seeing this interview.
Love this interview so much!!
Darn good interview, praise all the way around between the casts.
5:20- and u killed it girl all of u guys congratulations thanks for a beautiful movie that u cant move until its over
they seem like such fun people to hang out with
The chemistry is so amazing with these guys, off the charts! So wonderful to finally see an Asian Superhero and Asian representation! Loved this movie 🍿
omg i love them!!! that introvert story by Meng'er is so relatable. hahaha me too!
Such a beautiful family. Makes me happy
One happy family.
Defo my favorite movie. Watched this over and over. Such a good movie
This is my favorite interview for shang chi ✨✨
