Shang-Chi Clip Confirms Awesome Black Widow Cameo


We already know about Doctor Strange's Wong showing up in Shang-Chi and The Legend of the Ten Rings. However, the sorcerer is not the only character from another movie who shows up in the Simu Liu flick. Amazingly, a new clip confirms an awesome Black Widow cameo in the new Marvel Cinematic Universe film.

SPOILERS AHEAD! PROCEED WITH CAUTION!

An exclusive Shang-Chi clip was shared just ahead of the movie's theatrical release and it offers a peek into the underground fight club where Wong takes on the Abomination. The video is titled These Are Low Level Fights and it features Jon Jon (Ronny Chieng) welcoming Shang-Chi and Katy (Awkwafina) into the premises and preparing the viral bus-fight star for his big match.

As Jon Jon tells his guests about the fight club and how he's made sure Shang-Chi he's getting top billing, they pass glass rooms where other fights are happening. One of the matches happens to be between a Red Room-trained Black Widow and an Extremis-enhanced fighter (remember them from Iron Man 3?)

Interestingly, Jon Jon seems to be supporting the Black Widow. "Nice one, Helen," he says after she effectively lands a blow on her opponent. With that, it's confirmed that this is one of the Black Widows who appeared in the Scarlett Johansson movie.

Helen is played by stunt performer Jade Xu. Kevin Feige had previously teased that the multiple World Wushu champ would appear in another MCU flick.

Helen's cameo is more than just a cool reference to Black Widow. It also confirms that Dreykov's freed Black Widows have found interesting ways to make a living. With that in mind, we're curious about the fate of the other Black Widows and hope they return in the future.

Shang-Chi and The Legend of the Ten Rings is now screening in theaters.
