Covid has undeniably changed both the TV and theatrical release game for Marvel Studios, with dozens of titles featuring Earth's mightiest heroes have been brought to streaming, and a massive catalogue of Marvel content landing exclusively on Disney+.
From Saturday-morning cartoons, to the latest installments from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Disney+ has quickly become the exclusive home to Marvel TV shows and movies that cater to fans both new and old.
Studio chief Kevin Feige announced at the Disney Investors Day presentation last year, that 2021 would see massive releases on Disney+, especially with the studio taking the reins on producing new original TV content. The last few months of 2021 will also see movies that premiered simultaneously in theaters and for Premier Access available to all subscribers, like Black Widow.
While Black Widow did receive a hybrid release in July, plans to release Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings on the streaming service were pushed back, with the studio choosing to release it in cinemas and only arriving on Disney+ this month. It's unclear how long Disney will continue this dual-release model, but for now, Disney+ has the highly-anticipated Hawkeye series coming up, as well as a trove of existing Avengers and MCU content all in one place.
How Can I Watch Disney+ Online Free?
If you want to get up to speed on the most important Marvel storylines, or jump straight into watchingShang-Chi online, it's easy to sign up for a Disney+ subscription. Disney+ subscribers can watch it on-demand from their TV, laptop, tablet, phone, or gaming console.
A monthly subscription to Disney+ will get you all the ad-free content at just $7.99 a month. You can save yourself some cash when you sign up for a year-long plan instead at $79.99 (about a $14 discount). Hulu, Disney+ and ESPN+ have also teamed up to offer a bundle deal that gets you access to all three streamers for just $13.99 a month.
If you are a Verizon subscriber, you may be eligible for their "Disney+ on Us" deal, which gets you six months of Disney+ for free. Get the deal or see if your current Verizon plan qualifies here, which will let you streamShang-Chi on Disney+ for free. Watch all the MCU movies and series all in one place, including Avengers: Infinity War, plus offerings from Pixar, Star Wars, National Geographic, and more.

What Marvel Movies Are Currently Available on Disney+?
Before you stream Shang-Chi, you can re-watch all the other Marvel movies currently available on Disney+. As far as recommended viewing order goes, we suggest you watch the Marvel Cinematic Universe films in the order they were originally released in theaters, which is the order we've listed below. Yes, we know it isn't technically chronological—Captain Marvel takes place in the nineties and is the first canonical appearance of Nick Fury, while Captain America: The First Avenger is set during Steve Rogers service in World War II.

What Live-Action Marvel TV Shows Are Currently on Disney+?
Marvel Television was originally a separate division of Marvel Studios up until recently, and gave us shows like Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., starring Clark Gregg, reprising his role as Agent Phil Coulson from The Avengers.
