Kamala Khan Prepares to Mask Up in New Ms Marvel Image

An exclusive new image from Disney+’s upcoming Ms. Marvel series sees protagonist and new Marvel Cinematic Universe hero Kamala Khan (Iman Vellani) with a piece of her future suit.

The image, which comes from Total Film, has Kamala holding the mask that is to become a part of her Ms. Marvel costume. In addition to the image, Total Film spoke to Kamala’s co-creator Sana Amanat, who compared Kamala to the more prominent MCU heroes. “[Kamala is] this young character who is very much a fan of the bigwigs of the Marvel Universe like the Avengers, and she doesn’t feel necessarily like she can stand toe to toe with them,” Amanat said. “But I think, ultimately, she can, and she does.”

Amanat also discussed how Vellani, who is a fan of Marvel, landed the role of Kamala thanks, in part, to her admiration of the House of Ideas during her Zoom audition. “She showed me every corner of her room, and it was covered with Avengers,” Amanat said. “Then she said, ‘Oh wait, I’m not done,’ opened up her closet, and there was more Marvel everywhere.” Tying into this, Kamala’s own love of superheroes was mentioned in an earlier synopsis for the series, which mentioned that Carol Danvers/Captain Marvel is Kamala’s favorite Avenger.

Vellani herself talked about her experience playing Kamala, who will be the MCU’s first Muslim superhero. “The fact that the show is being made and they’re including this character in the MCU is [what’s important],” the actor said. “I don’t really have to go out of my way and talk about being a Muslim and being Pakistani — it all comes out in the show. People seeing a person like me involved in a project as big as this is, I think, inspiring enough.”

Outside of the Ms. Marvel series, Vellani will star as Kamala in the upcoming Captain Marvel sequel, The Marvels, alongside MCU veterans Brie Larson as Carol Danvers and Teyonah Parris reprising her WandaVision role as Monica Rambeau. A recently revealed Ms. Marvel Funko Pop! tie-in as well as an episode leak from February may have spoiled appearances from Carol and Lockjaw of the Inhumans. Lockjaw’s possible apperance in the show, however, is ironic, as the first trailer for it showed that Kamala is not an Inhuman like her comic book counterpart, something that was also left out of a synopsis for the upcoming series.

Ms. Marvel premieres June 8 on Disney+.
