1 | "Generation Why" | Adil & Bilall | Bisha K. Ali | June 8, 2022 | |||
Kamala Khan is a 16-year-old high schooler and fangirl of the Avengers, particularly Captain Marvel. After failing another driving test and meeting with school counselor Gabe Wilson, Kamala and her best friend Bruno Carrelli finish her Captain Marvel cosplay for "AvengerCon" while avoiding her strict parents, Yusuf and Muneeba. Kamala receives a package of items from her grandmother, including a golden bangle, but Muneeba sees it as junk. After failing to convince her parents to let her go to AvengerCon, Kamala and Carrelli sneak out and attend anyway, taking the bangle as part of her cosplay. After getting there and dressing up, she puts it on, but it causes her to project constructs of cosmic energy, inadvertently causing havoc. Amidst the chaos, Kamala uses her powers to save her classmate Zoe Zimmer from falling. Carrelli rushes Kamala home, where a distraught Muneeba pleads with her to focus on her own story. In a mid-credits scene, Department of Damage Control (DODC) agents P. Cleary and Sadie Deever watch a video of Kamala's incident at AvengerCon and head to New Jersey to find and detain her. | |||||||
2 | "Crushed" | Meera Menon | Kate Gritmon | June 15, 2022 | |||
Kamala begins training to control her powers with Carrelli, with the latter deducing the bangle activated Kamala's superpowers. Kamala, Carrelli, and Nakia Bahadir attend a party organized by Zimmer, where they meet new senior Kamran. Kamala befriends Kamran, but Carrelli becomes frustrated when she chooses to spend time with Kamran instead of training. After seeing a vision of a mysterious woman, Kamala asks her grandmother Sana and Muneeba about Kamala's great-grandmother Aisha, the original owner of the bangle, but both dismiss her. Yusuf says young Sana lost her way during the partition of India, but was able to find her father almost mysteriously. After questioning Zimmer about her savior at AvengerCon, Cleary and Deever order a sweep of the tri-state area, targeting South Asian communities. At an Eid celebration, a young boy slips from a mosque balcony and almost falls before Kamala saves him with her powers. Kamala is chased by DODC agents led by Deever, but is saved by Kamran, who introduces her to his mother Najma. | |||||||

Production
Development
Marvel Entertainment's Creative Consultant Joe Quesada said in September 2016 that there were plans to explore the character of Kamala Khan / Ms. Marvel in other media following her unusually rapid success and popularity among comic book readers.[28] Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige said in May 2018 that a Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) project based on Kamala Khan was "in the works",[29][30] and would follow the release of the film Captain Marvel (2019) as Khan is inspired by that film's title character Carol Danvers.[29]
By August 2019, Marvel Studios had begun development on a Ms. Marvel television series for the streaming service Disney+, with Bisha K. Ali hired to serve as the head writer after working as a writer on the series Loki.[31][32] Ali approached Kevin Wright, one of the Marvel Studios executives on Loki, while they were working together to get an opportunity to meet about Ms. Marvel,[32] and declined an extension to continue working on Loki in order to create her pitch. She believed Marvel responded to her "general vibe and energy" from her pitch, and that a series about Ms. Marvel was very personal to her "as a fan, as a South Asian person, as a Pakistani woman, [and] as a woman from a Muslim background", making a show about these be "specific and universal".[33] Ms. Marvel was officially announced at the 2019 D23 conference.[34]
In September 2020, Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah (credited as Adil & Bilall[25]) were hired to direct two episodes of the series, with Meera Menon hired to direct one episode, and Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy hired to direct three episodes;[35][36] Menon and Obaid-Chinoy ultimately directed two episodes each.[25] Despite their different visual styles and prior work, all of the directors worked closely together to create a "seamless transition" between their episodes.[9]: 5 Ali, El Arbi, and Fallah serve as executive producers on the series and worked closely with Marvel Studios to develop it,[37][38] with Kamala Khan co-creator Sana Amanat also serving as an executive producer.[38][25] Marvel Studios' Feige, Louis D'Esposito, Victoria Alonso, and Brad Winderbaum also serve as executive producers.[25]
Writing
In addition to Ali, writers for the series include Kate Gritmon, Freddy Syborn, A. C. Bradley, Matthew Chauncey, Sabir Pirzada, Fatimah Asghar, and Will Dunn.[26] Bradley and Chauncey were respectively the head writer, and story editor and writer for What If...?,[39][40] with Bradley also serving as a consulting producer on Ms. Marvel,[40]: 6 while Pirzada was a writer for Moon Knight.[41] Ali believed having Amanat as an executive producer on the series allowed them to "stay true to the character" from the comic books, while adding "something new, with a freshness, vitality and contemporary edge".[42] Ali called her time working on Loki as "good training ground" to serve as Ms. Marvel's head writer,[32] learning what creative freedoms Marvel Studios allowed for each series to inhabit their own part of the MCU, while still being bounded by the overarching storytelling.[32][33] She was told to keep Khan's story "ground level", which was already part of her plan for the series, while always focusing on who the character of Khan represents. Ali also received advice from WandaVision and The Falcon and the Winter Soldier head writers Jac Schaeffer and Malcolm Spellman.[33]
In Ms. Marvel, Khan gains the ability to harness cosmic energy and create hard light constructs from a magical bangle,[3][4] which differs from the shapeshifting abilities that she has in the comics. Feige explained that the Inhuman source of her abilities in the comics did not "match" with the timeline and events of the MCU, so her powers were adjusted to be related to her Pakistani heritage. They were also brought closer to the cosmic powers of the other heroes in the film The Marvels (2023), in which Vellani co-stars. Feige added that the character's "giant hands and arms" would still appear in the series "in spirit".[43] The change in Khan's powers was not part of Ali's initial pitch, with Ali adding it was a "group" decision to alter them and echoed Feige in saying the change was done to align the character with what has been established in the MCU.[42] She added that it was important that the new portrayal of Khan's powers had the "same connectivity with her psychology and the journey she's going through and the way she sees herself" as her shapeshifting abilities did in the comics.[7] Amanat and another of the character's co-creators, G. Willow Wilson, both were consulted on and supported the change, with Amanat feeling that it was "fun to give Kamala different kinds of powers that feel big in scope and cinematic... the essence of what the powers are in the comics is there, both from a metaphorical standpoint and from a visual standpoint."[30]
Ms. Marvel is a coming-of-age story, with Amanat noting the series took inspiration from the character's comics, creating the MCU version of the comics' "quirkiness and stylistic distinction" and being "told through the lens of Kamala's experience and her wild imagination". She also described Khan's life and world as "naturally colorful" given Jersey City is "a pretty crazy and vibrant and multicultural place". Carol Danvers is Khan's inspiration to become a hero, having seen her almost defeat Thanos during the events of Avengers: Endgame (2019). Amanat believed it was important to tell a story about who your heroes are for a young person of color, and exploring what that does "to your sense of self".[30] Ali wanted to mix the "whimsical and magical" qualities from Ms. Marvel's comics with American high school films, being inspired by John Hughes's films and the films 10 Things I Hate About You (1999), Lady Bird (2017), Eighth Grade (2018), and Booksmart (2019),[5] as well as the MCU film Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017). Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan also was an inspiration for the series.[32]
Casting
In September 2020, newcomer Iman Vellani was cast in the lead role of Kamala Khan.[2] Her aunt had forwarded her a casting call for the role, which led to Vellani submitting a self-tape, before being asked to audition at Marvel Studios' offices in Los Angeles, California.[6] She had an in-person screen test in February 2020, as well as a virtual one over Zoom in June 2020 before landing the role.[44] Set photos later that November revealed Matt Lintz had been cast in the series.[45] The next month, Marvel confirmed that Lintz had been cast,[46] portraying Bruno Carrelli,[8] along with Yasmeen Fletcher as Nakia Bahadir;[10] Zenobia Shroff as Muneeba Khan; Mohan Kapur as Yusuf Khan;[11] Saagar Shaikh as Aamir Khan;[47][12] Azhar Usman as Najaf;[9]: 15 Aramis Knight as Kareem / Red Dagger;[8] Rish Shah as Kamran;[48][49] Travina Springer as Tyesha Hillman; Laith Nakli as Sheikh Abdullah;[12] and Nimra Bucha as Najma.[14] Newcomer Laurel Marsden was cast in the role of Zoe Zimmer in February 2021.[50]
Also in February 2021, Alyy Khan and Alysia Reiner were revealed to have also been cast in the series,[21][51] with Reiner portraying Department of Damage Control (DODC) agent Sadie Deever.[13] Fawad Khan revealed that he was part of the cast in December 2021,[52] appearing as Hasan,[16] and Mehwish Hayat was reported a month later to also have a role in the series.[53] In March 2022, Adaku Ononogbo was revealed to be cast as Fariha,[15] while Anjali Bhimani was revealed as auntie Ruby,[54][19] a recurring role, after previously appearing in the Marvel Television series Runaways.[54] In May 2022, Arian Moayed was revealed to be cast in the series,[55][25] reprising his role as DODC agent P. Cleary from Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021).[13] Later that month, Farhan Akhtar was revealed to be appearing in the guest role of Waleed,[56][9]: 16 while Asfandyar Khan was also revealed as part of the cast in an undisclosed role.[22] In June, Jordan Firstman was revealed to have been cast as Gabe Wilson, named as a homage to G. Willow Wilson,[18] while Samina Ahmad appears as Sana,[20] and Ali Alsaleh and Vardah Aziz were also revealed to have been cast in undisclosed roles.[23]
Design
Arjun Bhasin serves as the costume designer for the series.[42] Khan's Ms. Marvel costume was inspired by burkinis and shalwar kameez, with subtle "cultural details" in the fabric.[57]: 89 Amanat credited Bhasin for incorporating "cool textures" to make the costume feel South Asian in "a very subtle way", and noted the lightning bolt on the costume was updated from the comic version of the costume.[42] Christopher Glass serves as production designer.[58]
Filming
El Arbi and Fallah, Menon, and Obaid-Chinoy, directed the series.[35] Filming began in early November 2020 at Trilith Studios in Atlanta, Georgia,[59][60] with additional filming at Blackhall Studios and Areu Brothers Studios.[61] The series was filmed under the working title Jersey.[62] Robrecht Heyvaert served as the cinematographer for El Arbi and Fallah,[63] with Carmen Cabana cinematographer for Menon,[64] and Jules O'Loughlin serving as cinematographer for Obaid-Chinoy.[65][9]: 27
The animated sequences were not scripted,[63] though an early version of the script for the first episode had a moment inside Khan's head, which the directors took and expanded that idea across the entire series.[7] El Arbi and Fallah conceived them as a way "to get inside Kamala Khan's head and capture her dream world and fantasy world",[63] and for viewers to see the world "through her eyes".[57]: 88 These moments were a way to translate the vibrancy the directors enjoyed from the comics into the series, and were inspired by the animated film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018).[66] The integration of the animated elements took a lot of planning during pre-production, and did not allow the directors any ability to improvise how those sequences were shot.[66] El Arbi noted the other directors also enjoyed using them for their episodes.[63] The duo were also inspired by Spike Lee and making New Jersey a character in the series like Lee does with New York City in his films,[66] Steven Spielberg, anime (particularly for the visual effects),[57]: 89 John Hughes's films,[66] the films Booksmart and Scott Pilgrim vs. the World (2010),[57]: 89 [66] the early 1990s television series Parker Lewis Can't Lose and Saved by the Bell, and Adrian Alphona and Jamie McKelvie's art from the Ms. Marvel comics.[66] El Arbi and Fallah concluded their episodes on March 5, 2021.[67]
Cultural advisors were used to examine the scripts and what was being filmed to ensure their authenticity.[64] Secondary filming occurred in Hudson County, New Jersey, from March to early April.[61][68] Vellani and Shah continued to film scenes in Atlanta through late April and early May.[49][69] Obaid-Chinoy began filming the fourth and fifth episodes in Thailand by March 23, specifically in Bangkok and at the Studio Park facilities.[70][65] Given the series' strict COVID-19 protocols, Ms. Marvel was able to obtain a waiver from the Thai government to continue filming in the country throughout April and May 2021 despite new restrictions put in place in April that suspended other film and television productions. The cast and crew of 450 people were divided into three bubbles in order for production to continue if a positive test was found in one of the bubbles. Filming for the series concluded in Thailand in early May 2021.[70] Reshoots, with Obaid-Chinoy directing, occurred at the end of January 2022.[71]
Post-production
Editors on the series include Nona Khodai (episodes one, four, five, and six), Sabrina Plisco (episodes one, three, and six), and Emma McCleave and Sushila Love (episodes two and three).[9]: 28 Visual effects for the series were created by Digital Domain, Framestore, FuseFX, Method Studios, RISE, SSVFX, Trixter, and Perception.[72]
Music
In May 2022, Laura Karpman was revealed to have composed the score for the series, after previously composing for What If...? and being hired to score The Marvels. Karpman said she immersed herself in Khan's "rich musical heritage".[73] The series features a number of existing songs, with Ali believing music was "an integral part" of adapting the character to the screen, and credited Amanat for having a strong vision of which songs were needed and should be used. Amanat called Ms. Marvel a "great platform" to showcase South Asian music, with the selections a "blend" much in the way the character of Khan is as well.[42] Karpman's score for the series will be released digitally by Marvel Music and Hollywood Records in two volumes: music from the first three episodes was released on June 22, 2022, and music from the last three episodes will be released on July 13. The series' main theme, "Ms. Marvel Suite", was released as a single on June 7.[74]
Marketing
A first look at the series with early footage, testimonials about the impact the character has had, and clips of Vellani's audition was shown at Disney's Investor Day in December 2020. Josh Weiss at Syfy Wire called it "absolutely priceless" seeing the exact moment Vellani learned she had been cast as Khan.[38] Additional footage was shown during Disney+ Day on November 12, 2021.[75][1]
The first trailer for the series was released on March 15, 2022.[3] Many commentators noted the change to Khan's powers from the comics (in which she has shape-shifting abilities) to being able to harness cosmic energy and form constructs with magical bangles,[3][76][77][78] believed to be similar to the Nega-Bands from the comics.[79] Linda Codega at Gizmodo said the trailer was "as adorable, fun, and exciting as the comics[, full] of absolutely excellent directorial decisions" and that the series looked like "a tone-perfect mashup of Scott Pilgrim vs. The World and Sky High".[80] Gabrielle Sanchez of The A.V. Club said the trailer offered "an illustrative guide to Kamala Khan".[78] The final shot of the trailer, as well as a teaser poster also released for the series, pays homage to the cover of Ms. Marvel (2014) #5.[11][81]
A Fan's Guide to Ms. Marvel, a documentary short featuring an exclusive look at the production of the series and interviews from the filmmaking team and Vellani, was released on Disney+ on June 1, 2022.[82][25] In January 2021, Marvel announced their "Marvel Must Haves" program, which reveals new toys, games, books, apparel, home decor, and other merchandise related to each episode of Ms. Marvel following an episode's release,[83] which started on June 7, 2022.[84] QR codes were included in the first two episodes linking viewers to a website to access free digital comics featuring Ms. Marvel that updated weekly;[85][86] this followed a similar program that happened with Moon Knight.[85] The comics released for the episodes, in order, were Ms. Marvel (2014) #1 and Ms. Marvel (2014) #15.[85][86]
Release
Ms. Marvel debuted on Disney+ on June 8, 2022,[3] and will consist of six episodes,[70] releasing weekly until July 13.[27] The red carpet premiere occurred on June 2 at El Capitan Theatre in Los Angeles.[87] The series was originally scheduled to debut in late 2021,[46] but following the announcement of Hawkeye premiering in late November 2021, Aaron Couch of The Hollywood Reporter said it was "unclear" if Ms. Marvel would also still release in 2021, given Hawkeye would still be releasing into December and it was "unlikely" two Marvel Studios series would release at the same time.[88] In August 2021, Matt Webb Mitovich of TVLine felt it was "very safe to assume" Ms. Marvel would premiere in early 2022,[89] with it confirmed the following month to be moving to 2022.[90] In November 2021, it was confirmed to be releasing in mid-2022,[1] with the June 2022 premiere confirmed in March 2022.[3] Ms. Marvel is part of Phase Four of the MCU.[91]
The series will receive a three-part theatrical release across Pakistan through licenser HKC Entertainment, due to Disney+ not being available in the country at that time. The first two episodes will release on June 16, 2022, followed by the third and fourth episodes on June 30, and the last two episodes on July 14.[92][93]
Reception
Percentage of positive critics' reviews tracked by the website Rotten Tomatoes[94] |
The review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes reported a 96% approval rating with an average rating of 8.10/10, based on 191 reviews. The website's critics consensus reads, "Ms. Marvel is a genuinely fresh addition to the MCU—both stylistically and substantively—with Iman Vellani ably powering proceedings with her super-sized charisma."[94] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned a score of 78 out of 100 based on 23 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[95]
The first two episodes were given to critics to review the series ahead of its premiere,[96] with Destiny Jackson at Empire feeling the series was able to balance the comedic and dramatic moments, with "witty visual gags and well-rounded, warmly funny, instantly likeable characters", adding that Ms. Marvel had "an authentic take on Pakistani-American culture; [...] the show takes admirable care in explaining the rituals and realities of life as a modern Muslim".[97] Writing for Rolling Stone, Alan Sepinwall commented that the superhero scenes were "rarely more than functional" with a lack of energy compared to the more personal ones such as Kamala's "arguments with her parents, her and Nakia protesting the condition of the gender-segregated parts of the mosque, or her and... Kamran flirting while discussing their favorite Bollywood films".[98] Variety's Caroline Framke felt Ms. Marvel broke through "Marvel's typical house style" with the use of animation throughout to convey Khan's thoughts and day dreams, calling it a "tangibly kinetic magic" and likening it to the animated film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.[99] Activist Malala Yousafzai praised the series for its reflection of Pakistani people,[100] and was "struck by how familiar Kamala Khan’s life seemed to me", saying the series was "for every young person finding their place in the world".[101]
Vellani's portrayal of Kamala Khan received widespread praise.[102][103][96] IGN's Emma Fraser compared her to Hailee Steinfeld as Kate Bishop in Hawkeye,[102] with Kathryn Porter of Paste adding that Vellani "shines" in the role and that there was "no way to explain how great she is in this other than to say that she embodies the true spirit of Kamala Khan".[103] Mohammad Zaheer at BBC Culture called Vellani "an adorable bundle of charisma" in a role "tailor-made for her", likening her to Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark and Emma Watson as Hermione Granger from the Wizarding World franchise.[104]
The changes to Khan's powers from the comics was also highlighted,[105][103][98][106] with several critics commenting on the new origin's more personal connection.[107][99][108] In contrast, Sepinwall called these abilities "more generic" than the comics powers.[98] Charles Pulliam-Moore at The Verge wrote that the live-action abilities "are only able to approximate the flashy aspects of what was originally a nuanced metaphor in the comics. [...] But the show doesn't go nearly as far with its hero in terms of using its conceit to explore ideas like internalized racism or the pressures Western (read: white) beauty standards put on people of color".[106] G. Willow Wilson, one of the character's creators, had previously described that during the development of Khan's powers, it was chosen not to give her "sparkly, hand wave-y, floaty, pretty powers", which Porter felt was "one of the most important things about her in the comics, and losing that in favor of powers that are, in fact, sparkly, hand wave-y, floaty, and pretty is really unfortunate".[103]
After the release of the first episode, the series was review bombed on IMDb with a high amount of 1 star ratings. Multiple reviews were also posted with some reviewers not liking the family friendly aspects of the series or the change of Khan's powers, while others called the series "woke", mentioning Captain Marvel.[109][110]
Future
During the series' official announcement at D23, Feige stated that after introducing Ms. Marvel in the series, the character would cross over to the MCU films,[34] which he reiterated in November 2019.[111] Previously, Captain Marvel star Brie Larson expressed interest in including Ms. Marvel in that film's sequel,[112] and Vellani was confirmed to be appearing in the Captain Marvel sequel, The Marvels, in December 2020.[113][114] In February 2021, Feige revealed that Ms. Marvel would set-up The Marvels.[115] The Marvels was not fully conceived by the time Ali started working on the series, so she had a lot of creative freedom in crafting the series, but knew there needed to be a "maturity" across the arc of the series so Khan would "be ready" for the events of The Marvels.[7] Additionally, Shaikh, Shroff, and Kapur reprise their respective roles as Khan's family members in The Marvels.[116]
