MS. MARVEL TV Series is in Development For Disney+
Marvel Studios has another big Disney+ series that has been announced that is going to excite a lot of fans! THR is reporting that the new live-action series will focus on Ms. Marvel! The series is being developed by British writer Bisha K. Ali, who will write and act as showrunner on the series. Ali is a comedian who is currently a writer on Hulu’s remake of Four Weddings and a Funeral.
The series will most likely officially be announced by Disney and Marvel today during the big D23 Expo Disney+ presentation.
The series will be inspired by and focus on the most recent incarnation of the character, a teenager named Kamela Khan. Ms. Marvel is a shape-shifting Muslim Pakistani-American teenager from New Jersey, who becomes the newest holder of the Ms. Marvel identity. She is the youngest of two children from a traditional Pakistani Family. Her powers have been described as polymorphous, meaning she has the ability to stretch and change her shape.
Despite her traditional roots, Kamala was the typical American teenager. Wanting to be herself, but still make her family proud. For several years, Kamala was a fan of superheroes especially the Avengers and, more importantly, Carol Danvers. So much, in fact, that she started writing online fan-fiction about the Avengers and Captain Marvel. Even going as far as joining the Carol Danvers Corps online.
I actually really love this version of the character and I’m excited to see how this show ends up coming together!
