Hollywood is buzzing with excitement as the trailer for The Marvels, also known as Captain Marvel 2, promises yet another electrifying Marvel journey. Directed by Nia DaCosta, the film is set to unveil its interstellar spectacle this autumn, centering around the unprecedented union of Brie Larson‘s Captain Marvel, Teyonah Parris’s Monica Rambeau, and Iman Vellani’s Ms. Marvel.
Likened to the exhilaration of an Avengers installment, the movie aims to present an alliance of these formidable heroes, which hasn’t been witnessed on the silver screen yet. But the burning question amid this anticipation is – will the film only be about this iconic trio or will there be unexpected drops from the larger Marvel universe?
Hints dropped in the latest trailer have got fans scratching their heads over a possible cameo from the Shang-Chi realm. One compelling piece of evidence seems to be the appearance of the villain, Dar-Benn, portrayed by the remarkable Zawe Ashton. Dar-Benn is seen securing a bangle in the trailer which bears an uncanny resemblance to the one adorned by Iman Vellani’s character, Kamala Khan. For those deeply entrenched in the Marvel narrative, they’d recollect Kamala’s grandmother, Aisha, obtaining this distinctive bangle from a deceased Kree in a setting that gave away strong vibes of the Ten Rings remnants in the Ms. Marvel series.
Dar-Benn’s possession of an identical bangle is now leading to speculations that the notorious Ten Rings criminal faction, which was the focal point in Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, might weave its way into The Marvels. There’s an intriguing twist though – Dar-Benn seems to retrieve her bangle in space. Could this be a trail leading back to the very ruins where Aisha discovered the ancestral Khan bangle?

Debates are rife regarding Shang-Chi’s potential appearance in The Marvels. Drawing parallels, enthusiasts remember Brie Larson’s Captain Marvel having a brief but notable presence at the climax of Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings. She appeared as a forewarning of a looming threat post the activation of Simu Liu’s Shang-Chi’s powerful rings. The intertwining tales of Kamala’s bangle and Shang-Chi’s ten rings have been fodder for gossip mills, hinting they might be pivotal to the forthcoming Marvel arcs, much like the enigmatic Infinity Stones were in the past chapters.
Given the intricate mesh of narratives between the Captain Marvel and Shang-Chi universes, a cameo in the upcoming film seems not just likely but apt. Though fans are hoping for a Shang-Chi appearance, there’s also a looming possibility of his sister, Xu Xialing, marking her presence. With Xu Xialing currently helming the Ten Rings and the consistent insinuations of her impending return to the Marvel domain, she could be the wild card entry, especially if The Marvels revisits the historical ruins showcased in Ms. Marvel.
Amidst these swirling theories and fan-generated hypotheses, one thing is for certain – the anticipation for The Marvels, releasing on November 10, is sky-high. One can only wait with bated breath to see how these interconnected tales unfold on the cinematic canvas.
