Ms. Marvel trailer gives a first look at Kamala Khan’s costume and powers that differ from the comics
Marvel Studios recently dropped a brand-new trailer for its upcoming Disney+ series Ms. Marvel, starring newcomer Iman Vellani as the titular superhero, all set to join the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
The first trailer showcases Kamala Khan's radically new power set ahead of her MCU debut. Created by Bisha K. Ali, the Disney+ miniseries will introduce us to Kamala Khan, a 16-year-old Muslim Pakistani-American from Jersey City fascinated by the Avengers, who looks up to Captain Marvel in particular, as she becomes imbued with shape-shifting powers.
As created by G. Willow Wilson, Sana Amanat, Stephen Wacker, and Adrian Alphona in the comics, Kamala has a relatively unique set of superpowers. While Kamala Khan's powers in the comics consist of stretching, shrinking and growing, the trailer shows the new hero shooting purple cosmic energy beams, forming shields, manifesting a giant fist in a nod to her comic book counterpart and the kind of midair stepping stones previously seen in Doctor Strange films.
The trailer makes it pretty clear that its protagonist's powers are more based on energy. Kamala herself describes the powers as "cosmic" in the recently-dropped trailer. Along with the first trailer, Marvel also released a new synopsis for its upcoming original series that introduces Kamala Khan, 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?”
Ms. Marvel is slated to premiere June 8 on Disney+ Hotstar.
