The Marvel Cinematic Universe has given us many gems since its release of IronMan origin story in 2008 and so far all the characters seemed very heroic, more than regular characters. As far as magical abilities are concerned every character has done justice to a cinematic value, put in the script. I have just seen Shang-Chi and The Legend of The Ten Rings, I am in awe of the whole storytelling part. Apart from the storytelling, The one thing I can't stop thinking about is, Wong and his character being overshadowed by other main characters.
Go Watch Shang-CHI now!
Wong is a perfect wizard who has figured out, how to live in MCU's complicated storyline and earn a living as a freelance fighter. The guy has fought Thanos's army, Doramamu, and has been saving the Sanctum of Kamar-Taj for years, but he has figured out how to live off the grid and take part in secret fight clubs, where he can fight mystical beings like abomination and earn a little on the side. He has also been training the Abomination, so the fights can be more entertaining and their team can keep their money-flow active.
In the Movie, Wong only appears for less than a minute but it's quite clear that he has been visiting beings like Abomination in their prison cells and taking them out on detours, that's really smart. He is making friends and keeping the entire MCU running on the sidelines. In the post-credit scenes, we see wong visiting Shang-CHI and explaining the mysterious origins of the Ten rings. This Post-credit scene opens many possibilities for MCU phase-4. Also, he sings a karaoke of Hotel California, which is totally awesome. In this Karaoke, we can see Wanf living his life and it's good to see, him breaking his character from Dr.Strange's shadows.
Wong being and wizard and Protector of the sacred Library of Kamar-Taj has been pretty serious when he is with Dr.Strange as Stephen seems to be more careless. So, Wong takes his time off, as we have seen him in Spiderman No Way Home trailer, going on a holiday kind of run. He probably runs from Kamar-Taj from time to time to live his life with the money he earns by fighting in secret fight clubs. So, while he is at his regular job by Stephen's side, he is just being a serious protector but when he is going off the grid, he is making friends and lives his life to his fullest. Now, he also has some Asian Karaoke friends, so I am happy for this lovely wizard.
