GOT7 member and soloist Jackson Wang may be adding another milestone in his music career as fans mention that they can hear the singer's signature husky voice in the latest trailer of the Marvel movie Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings.
In the trailer that dropped on Monday, April 19, fans can immediately hear the Hong Kong native in the background by the 0:16 mark.
Listen closely:
While there is no official statement that Jackson Wang is the artist behind the amazing soundtrack, media company 88rising tagged the K-pop idol in their social media post of the trailer.
Many fans would know that Jackson often collaborates with 88rising in his many endeavors outside of K-pop back when he was signed under JYP Entertainment.
Since the release of the trailer, many fans couldn't help but feel excited and happy for Jackson as he will be the very first K-pop idol to do an OST for Marvel Studios once the confirmation has been made.
Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings center around the conflict between Shang Chi and his father The Mandarin a.k.a. Wenwu.
The film is directed by Destin Daniel Cretton and stars an all-Asian cast, namely Simu Liu, Tony Leung, Awkwafina, Meng'er Zhang, Michelle Yeoh, Ronny Chieng, Fala Chen, and Florian Munteanu. The film is scheduled to be released on September 3, 2021.
Take a look at some of the fans' reactions over on Twitter:
Marvel: Now that we have our Asian Cast Members, we need an Asian artist for the soundtrack.

Jackson Wang is part of Marvel's Shang Chi soundtrack which was included in the actual trailer.
