Marvel released Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings final trailer today, and fans have questions. The new Shang-Chi trailer features some interesting insights in the mystical world of martial arts fighters that Marvel Studios if building up – including a tournament that will feature cameos by some big crossover characters from other Marvel franchises like Doctor Strange and The Incredilbe Hulk.

However, one thing that Marvel fans really want to know is how the Marvel Cinematic Universe is adapting the comic book mythos about The Mandarin and his ten magic rings. Some of Shang-Chi‘s footage seems to hint that legend of the Ten Rings will be tied to ancient lore about Chinese dragons – and possibly Marvel’s most infamous dragon, Fin Fang Foom!

Rumors have swirled for years, so fans saw this moment in the Shang-Chiย trailer and “Fin Fang Foom” immediately became a trending topic on the Internet. That dragon still has clout!ย
Not My Fin Fang Foom
Guys, as sad as it is, that’s not Fin Fang Foom. We’ve already seen the full design, thanks to LEGO, and this isn’t ANYTHING like the big green boi. pic.twitter.com/hhODGNibc6

Itโs the Great Protector pic.twitter.com/XgA23kH18s
Fortunately (or not) we already know that this creature is NOT Fin Fang Foom. Merchandising has already revealed the dragon to be called “The Great Protector” and Shang-Chiย star Simu Liu already confirmed Fin Fang Foom is not part of the film.ย

If you don’t think you can still get excited for Marvel movies – a big dragon might just change your mind.ย

A scene of Abomination appearing inย Shang-Chiย got fans hyped – seeing an official MCU debut of Fin Fang Foom would be icing on the cake!ย

Abomination looks more like Fin Fang Foom than anyone else in this #ShangChi trailer.

Peep those fins.
I don’t think he had those fins in Incredible Hulk (2008).
I wonder if there will be a connection there… ๐ค
Don’t mind me. Just thinking out loud. pic.twitter.com/mApM9KFClZ
Some fans think that “Abomination” in the trailer will turn out to beย Shang-Chi‘s adaptation of Fin Fang Foom. That would weirder than getting the actual dragon!ย
Just Tryna Fin Fang…
