It’s good to hear that Destin Daniel Cretton down to direct Shang-Chi 2, and considering how well its predecessor is performing so far, surely Marvel Studios is at least setting up a meeting with him to talk about the sequel, if not already decided he should come back. There’s a scenario where just directing the first Shang-Chi movie would have been enough to scratch Cretton’s superhero itch and he’d have moved on, but he’s game for another round in this corner of the MCU. If Cretton is confirmed to direct Shang-Chi 2, he would be the seventh Marvel director to stay on for the first two installments of an MCU film series, following Iron Man’s Jon Favreau, Guardians of the Galaxy’s James Gunn, Avengers’ Joss Whedon, Ant-Man’s Peyton Reed, Spider-Man’s Jon Watts and Black Panther’s Ryan Coogler.
