Deadline is reporting that newcomer Imon Vellani has been picked to star in Ms. Marvel, the Disney+ series based on the comic-book character. Marvel and Disney Plus recently named Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah, Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy and Meera Menon as directors on the project.

The character of Ms. Marvel comes from writer Bisha K. Ali and centers on Kamala Khan, a Pakistani-American teen based in New Jersey. Ms. Marvel first appeared in 2014 as Marvel’s first Muslim character to star in her own title, and she will become Marvel Studios’ first onscreen Muslim hero. Marvel Studios chief Kevin Feige has said that in addition to appearing on the small screen, Kamala Khan will be included in future Marvel films.

Hey just joking. More than anything else agreeing with you on the mess that Iron Fist and Inhumans were. Its baffling that they put those out, when they already saw the examples of DAREDEVIL and JESSICA JONES and even LUKE CAGE. If nothing else, learn from what they did, right? But no. No, they ignored virtually every "right" thing and just wallowed in the wrong.

Garbage? You're being overly kind there.

Ugh, a double whammy of awfulness, and you had to mention it while I was having lunch.....

Ha. I mentioned it 20 hours ago. It's not my fault it took so long to read it.

Im sure this actress will do fine. An unknown makes it slightly easier to not have expectations that a young actress would have to (unfairly) live up to.

i would have thought the voice actor for Kamala in the PS4 gamewould have been perfect.

Sandra Saad is the voice actress.. maybe she is too old. All well, never cared for this character so nothing to lose. As others have said, MCU hasnt really struck out yet, Id bet this young lady knocks it out of the park

Looks like a solid choice, but the proof will be in the acting

There's a big difference between the Disney + shows and a Netflix show like Iron Fist or an ABC series like Inhumans (remember that garbage?). The difference is that everything on Netflix and ABC was produced by Jeph Loeb, with Kevin Feige being EXTREMELY hands off, and the Disney + shows are being produced by Kevin Feige (Jeph Loeb has been released from Marvel), who is apparently overseeing everything like he's done with the MCU movies. Some of the movies have been duds and some of the Loeb produced tv shows (or some seasons of otherwise good shows) have been duds, but Feige may have the better percentage here.

Yeah iron fist wasn't great but I agree with you that a lot of that was the fault of script. Still it did improve a little bit in season 2 at least. Still not great but what can you do.

Right tho, he was supposed to be a super ninja that has mastered not only his skills but master of his emotion. He got way too emotional about his life.

Oh i dont mind who they cast. Theyve casted everyone pretty good in my opinion. Paul rudd, chris evens, etc all excelled in their roles. Its usually the script that makes or breaks it. Id say their worst casting was iron fist and even still it was mostly the script.
