Debuting in Marvel Comics in 2013, Kamala Khan is Marvel’s first Muslim superhero to lead their own comic book title and is an Inhuman who takes up crimefighting after being inspired by her idol Carol Danvers.
It’s unclear whether the MCU version of the character will retain the Inhuman element, but we do know that she’ll have ties to Brie Larson’s Carol Danvers: set photos have shown Vellani’s Kamala cosplaying as Captain Marvel, and she is also set to follow up the Ms. Marvel series with an appearance alongside Larson and WandaVision star Teyonah Parris (Monica Rambeau) in the Captain Marvel sequel The Marvels.

Ms. Marvel has previously been announced as coming to Disney+ this year, although recent rumours have suggested it may be pushed back to early 2021.
