The Nerdist article discusses how Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings shares surprising thematic and narrative connections with Black Panther and the unmade Black Panther II plans centered around T'Challa's son, T'Challa II. Specifically, it highlights the parallels between Shang-Chi's Ta Lo dimension and Wakanda, both being hidden, technologically advanced societies with strong cultural traditions that connect to the past. Additionally, the article suggests that themes originally intended for Black Panther II regarding legacy and a child unexpectedly thrust into a leadership role, albeit under drastically different circumstances, resonate within Shang-Chi's storyline, creating a connection between the two films despite Chadwick Boseman's passing and the subsequent script changes for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.
