Another addition to the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) will be making its way in late 2021 as the upcoming Disney Plus series "Ms. Marvel" has been confirmed by the media franchise, with the cast being revealed and confirmed by the show's producers.

"Ms. Marvel" will feature the character of comic character Kamala Khan, who then would-be "Ms. Marvel" after inheriting her superhero mantle from her idol Carol Danvers or Captain Marvel.

Ms. Marvel and the Cast

Marvel boss and producer Kevin Feige revealed the official announcement for the series, and even shared the first look for the currently on the works "Ms. Marvel." The show will star Canadian actress Iman Vellani as Kamala Khan/ Ms. Marvel. A pseudo trailer slash feature video was shown on the Investor Day where it presents some clips from the series itself showing Vellani playing the "Ms. Marvel" role.

Though only a few of the segment of Marvel was really featured in the event, the announcement was backed and followed up by some additional write-ups and more revelations for their upcoming shows and films which includes those for "Ms. Marvel." A "Ms. Marvel" footage posted on Marvel's official website Marvel.com confirms that the show will be released in the late parts of 2021, debuting in the official video streaming platform of their mother company which is the Disney Plus.
