It was reported this week that Shang-Chi movie director Destin Daniel Cretton is helming a Disney+ series based on Gene Luen Yang’s seminal graphic novel “American Born Chinese.” It feels appropriate, given Yang writes the character’s current comic book series, although the world he and artist Dike Ruan have been building is quite different from the one in the MCU. Case in point: Shang-Chi’s mother, Jiang Li, is alive.
