The show may be announced during Friday’s Disney+ presentation. Marvel had no comment.as a comic and heroine has existed since 1976, with the character Carol Danvers using the name for her crime-fighting escapades. Several other characters have briefly taken up the mantle and Danvers herself became Captain Marvel in 2012.
The latest incarnation, and the one the show will be focusing on, is a teenager named Kamela Khan. Khan broke ground by becoming Marvel’s first Muslim character to be lead her own comics title. Her identity as a Pakistani American, living in a religious family in New Jersey whilst trying to find her own way, have been a major focus of the stories. Her powers have been described as polymorphous, meaning she has the ability to stretch and change her shape.
The comic has appeared on numerous year-end top 10 lists and won a Hugo Award for best graphic story in 2015. No timetable has been set for the show and it unclear whether the show will fit into the larger Marvel Cinematic Universe. Marvel is developing several other shows for the streamer that will be tied to the MCU. These includeLokiSign up for Heat Vision's weekly newsletter for all things comics, sci-fi and more.

Wait hold on Ms. Marvel is so hot maybe we’ll be subscribing.....
I AM SO EXCITED BUT DISNEY, PLEASE DONT MESS UP THE CASTING!!!
We need an actress in their late teens-early 20s.
NiceToMeetcha isn’t this the comic you’ve been reading?!
Looks like shit.
Nah , not before you reboot daredevil 😤
Captain Marvel wasn't Enough, Huh?
All I know is Ms. Marvel better be played by a Pakistani actress. Not Indian or Arab or any other nationality. Pakistani. And if you can’t find anyone, I’d be happy to suggest someone who’ll beautifully fit the bill.
Live action?
They better choose the right actress to play her
Cue the triggered right wing who'll be raging about Muslims being portrayed as actual human beings, and not as jihadi terrorists plotting to kill the infidels

It's going to be difficult finding an actress as unlikable and completely wrong for the part as Brie Larson, but I have faith in Marvel to totally screw this up :)
Is this Ms. Marvel or Ms. Popeye... the arms brah , the arms..
Wow, another character hated by readers but 'loved' by worthless ideologues who don't read comics.
We wanted Spider Gwen but we'll still stream!
