A new Disney+ series is in the works featuring Ms. Marvel, according to THR. They say it will be based on the acclaimed, award-winning comic series starring Kamala Khan, who takes inspiration from Captain Marvel to become Ms. Marvel. The comic, originally spearheaded by Muslim writer G. Willow Wilson, is notable for featuring Marvel’s first headlining Muslim hero.
As Ms. Marvel, Kamala’s powers revolve around shapeshifting, allowing her to stretch, “embiggen,” and temporarily shapeshift. She has origins as an Inhuman in the comics.
THR notes that “No timetable has been set for the show and it unclear whether the show will fit into the larger Marvel Cinematic Universe.” British writer Bisha K. Ali will reportedly write and act as showrunner. Ali is a comedian who is currently a staff writer on Hulu’s remake of Four Weddings and a Funeral.
