Triple Take in Times Square: Simu Liu Reveals New Wax Figure For Madame Tussauds New York And Madame Tussauds Orlando

Global superstar Simu Liu has arrived at Madame Tussauds! After receiving not one, but two Madame Tussauds wax figures, one for New York and one for Orlando, fans of Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings and Barbie can come face-to-face with the iconic actor. 

Liu’s Madame Tussauds New York figure is styled in a powder-blue Versace suit inspired by Liu’s appearance at the Los Angeles premiere of Barbie. The look includes a matching harness with gold hardware layered over a crisp white shirt, paired with dark green loafers and accessories inspired by the jewelry and watch worn at the event. 

Capturing Liu’s likeness required the work of 20 of Madame Tussauds studio artists, who began the process with a detailed sitting session with Liu, during which more than 200 precise measurements and reference photographs were taken from every angle. Using these references, sculptors crafted a clay model of the actor’s likeness before creating a wax cast that forms the foundation of the final figure. Once the wax form is cast, artists apply layers of oil-based paint to replicate realistic skin tones, while human hair is inserted strand by strand before being carefully cut and styled.

Guests visiting Madame Tussauds New York and Madame Tussauds Orlando can now step into the spotlight and strike a pose with Simu Liu’s remarkably lifelike wax figures at Madame Tussauds New York, located in the heart of Times Square and Madame Tussauds Orlando at ICON Park beginning in mid-April.
