A Rising Marvel
Star Is Heading
To The Simpsons
By BRANDON SHOAFF
“The Simpsons” has had an immense number of celebrities guest-star on the show, including Kumail Nanjiani and Tom Hiddleston, who have both played characters in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. According to “The Simpsons” showrunner Matt Selman, another Marvel actor will be featured on the show in the upcoming Season 34.
Selman said, "We have Simu Liu from Marvel's 'Shang-Chi' in an upcoming show as Lisa's perfect future boyfriend,” so fans of both “The Simpsons” and the MCU should be on the lookout for Liu’s cameo. Liu’s “Shang-Chi” film was an instant hit for Marvel fans everywhere, and his career has been on the rise ever since he made his Marvel debut in 2021.
Besides guest-starring in “The Simpsons,” Liu will also have a part in Margot Robbie’s “Barbie” movie and is going to play a huge role in the MCU moving forward. So perhaps as Liu continues to bolster his career and make a name for himself, he’ll be invited back to “The Simpsons” if all goes well in Season 34.
