漫威正在開發首部華人超級英雄電影

Marvel Studios reportedly is working on its first feature film with an Asian hero as the lead.

據傳漫威影業正在開發其首部以亞裔英雄爲主角的故事片。

Deadline reported that the studio is planning a film about Shang-Chi, also called the Master of Kung Fu.

好萊塢新聞前線報道稱，漫威影業正在籌劃一部有關“功夫大師”上氣的電影。

Created by Steven Englehart and Jim Starlin, Shang-Chi made his first appearance in Marvel comics in December 1973 following the boom of martial arts films thanks to the success of "Enter the Dragon".

上氣由史蒂夫·恩格爾哈特和吉姆·斯大林創作，於1973年12月在漫威漫畫中首次登場，緊跟因《猛龍過江》的成功帶動的功夫電影熱潮。

Shang-Chi was born the son of supervillain Fu Manchu, but later opposed his father's ways. In 2013, he joined The Avengers.

上氣是大反派傅滿洲的兒子，但後來反對父親的做法。在2013年，他加入復仇者聯盟。

Chinese-American writer Dave Callaham, who wrote the script for the upcoming "Wonder Woman 1984", along with Patty Jenkins and Geoff Johns, will write the screenplay.

美籍華裔作家戴夫·卡拉漢姆將執筆該片劇本，他與派蒂·傑金斯和戈夫·約翰斯合寫了即將上映的《神奇女俠1984》的劇本。

The script will modernize the hero to avoid stereotypes that many comic characters of that era were saddled with.

該片的劇本將使上氣成爲現代化的英雄，以避免那個時代的許多漫畫角色揹負的刻板印象。

The studio is already looking at a number of Asian and Asian-American directors, hoping to emulate the success of "Black Panther", which tapped into African and African-American culture and featured a nearly all-black cast.

漫威已經開始物色許多亞洲和美籍亞裔導演，希望可以複製《黑豹》的成功。《黑豹》探索了非洲/非裔美國文化，啓用了幾乎全非裔的演員陣容。
