Before Simu Liu was doing his own stunts in Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, he was taking punches for Pete Wentz in Fall Out Boy's gladiatorial "Centuries" video. Yup, that's right. Marvel's latest star was once Wentz' stunt double. And he was so excited about it that he posted a picture of himself and the bassist on Twitter in 2014 with the caption: "That time I was a stunt double for @petewentz"
See the tweet and watch the "Centuries" video below.

Fall Out Boy just wrapped up the North American leg of the Hella Mega Tour with Weezer and Green Day, and Wentz reflected on being out on the road for the first time since the pandemic began.
"Bittersweet to end this leg of hella mega. But this summer I really realized (like in my bones realized) how magical it is to come together to sing songs and share energy," he wrote on Instagram alongside photos of FOB and Green Day, and fan shots. FOB was forced to cancel a number of tour dates after a crew member tested positive for COVID-19. During their absence, the other bands made sure to honor them.
