It appears the filming for Shang Chi 2 has not yet started. Even there is no official title as of now. The filming may start soon, but the shared release calendar for Marvel Studios does not have Shang chi for 2025 or 2026. The fans will probably need to wait till 2027 to see the Shang Chi 2 on the big screen

Disney CEO Bob Iger, on a quarterly earnings call on Tuesday, said the Marvel output is being shrunk to 2 TV series and 3 movies in a year. The statement contrasts with the previously shared Marvel Studios release calendar with 4 movies each in 2025 and even 2026, according to Variety.
