Disney+ has released a new clip from Marvel’s upcoming series Ms. Marvel, and it focuses on Kamala Khan’s excitement about going to attend AnengersCon. The thing is… her parents will only let her go under certain conditions.
In the scene, Kamala’s mother, Muneeba, tells Kamala that she is only allowed to go as she goes with her father, obeys a strict time limit, and has to dress up as Little Hulk, with her dad dressing up as Big Hulk. As you might imagine, Kamala is not happy with the whole situation.
I’ve already seen the series, and I enjoyed it and found it quite charming. I’ve got two teenage daughters, and aspects of their personalities match Kamala’s, which made it easy for me to connect to the story.
Kamala Khan is a Muslim American teenager growing up in Jersey City. “An avid gamer and a voracious fan-fiction scribe, Kamala is a Super Hero mega fan with an oversized imagination—particularly when it comes to Captain Marvel. Yet Kamala feels like she doesn’t fit in at school and sometimes even at home—that is, until she gets super powers like the heroes she’s always looked up to. Life gets better with super powers, right?”
The rest of the cast includes Aramis Knight, Saagar Shaikh, Rish Shah, Zenobia Shroff, Mohan Kapur, Matt Lintz, Yasmeen Fletcher, Laith Nakli, Azhar Usman, Travina Springer, and Nimra Bucha.
The Ms. Marvel series is being developed by British writer Bisha K. Ali (Four Weddings and a Funeral), who is writing the series and also serves as showrunner.
Episodes are directed by Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah, Meera Menon and Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy. Kevin Feige, Louis D’Esposito, Victoria Alonso and Bisha K. Ali are the executive producers.
Ms. Marvel is set to premiere exclusively on Disney+ on June 8, 2022!
