Will the Kree be the creators of the mutants in the MCU, instead of the Inhumans as they are in the comics? As mentioned above, in that first set photo with Ms. Marvel's new costume, a Kree can clearly be seen sitting on the floor. Could Marvel be gearing up to combine the mythos of Inhumans and mutants in some way? Maybe in the midst of using it, she accidentally made a connection with its pair, causing the two to switch positions. The images showcased Ms. Marvel in a brand-new costume, in an unknown alien location. Who would have guessed that Ms. Marvel was going to be the MCU project which gave the world the first mutant in the Marvel Cinematic Universe? Or at least that’s what it looks like from here.

For those in need of a quick refresher, 2019's "Captain Marvel" laid out the 1990s-set origin story of how ace pilot Carol Danvers found herself stripped of her memories, imbued with immensely powerful energy-based abilities, and taken to utterly alien worlds to put her powers to good use. The location-swapping incident with Kamala may provide the answer of how "The Marvels" will begin. Though some may believe this is an example of Kamala's shapeshifting powers in action, transforming her into the legendary Captain Marvel that she's always wanted to be, it's far more likely that both Kamala and Carol have literally switched places. Though perhaps not interrogated quite as in-depth as the source material did, this integral facet of her personality (combined with the valuable lessons imparted by her parents) clearly led her on the path to becoming a selfless superhero in her own right. The introductory chapter of Kamala's story came to a stirring close with today's season finale, tying up all the loose ends from last week's sweeping romance and finally establishing young Kamala as the superhero she was born to be. We've come a long way since the first "Iron Man" in 2008, where much of the only nonwhite presence consisted of Afghan terrorist antagonists embodying every eyeroll-worthy stereotype that persisted throughout the so-called War on Terror. Things couldn't be more different on the newest Disney+ series, led by Iman Vellani's star-making turn as Kamala Khan and bolstered by an impressive attention to detail in its Muslim representation.

Ms. Marvel on Disney Plus has already reinvented Kamala Khan from her comic book origin. But the show had one final twist for viewers: Kamala's DNA is ...

Marvel Studios has yet to announce any concrete plans for the X-Men in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. But some major opportunities for the company to do so are swiftly approaching. With Disney’s acquisition of 20th Century Fox, the licensing of X-Men characters is no longer a hurdle. And at Marvel Comics, mutant status started to be an editorial planning point of nonzero significance, as it could very directly determine how available the character would be for broader use by the rest of Marvel Entertainment and the Walt Disney Company. But ironically there have never been more consequences to revealing that a non-mutant character is a mutant in Marvel Comics, due to the current status quo of the X-Men. Right now, in Marvel Comics, every mutant on Earth has protection under international law as a citizen of the living island of Krakoa, access to Krakoa’s global network of teleportation gates, and to mutant resurrection, a kind of de facto immortality. Absolutely not, which is what makes this mind-blowing for fans of Marvel Comics. In fact, Kamala is kind of the opposite of a mutant. That same year, one of the publisher’s rising stars, Squirrel Girl, was cheekily retconned out of the mutant status we’d been told she had for years. The companies’ licensing agreements meant that mutant-associated characters couldn’t appear in MCU movies, and non-mutant associated characters couldn’t appear in X-Men movies. “‘If any of [Kamala’s family] put the bangle on, would they have powers?’ The answer was always no, from a character perspective, no.” But however the cast and crew took it, in the show, Kamala shrugs it off. I was just blessed and lucky enough to be able to share that with Iman and everybody else.” “It was hilarious,” he told Marvel.com, “because she just was like, ‘This is so cool.’ She couldn’t believe that I was saying this to her. seemed off.” He tells her that there’s “something different” in her genes.

The 'Ms. Marvel' finale has big implications for the rest of the Marvel Cinematic Universe — from that bombshell musical cue to that intriguing end-credits ...

And Kamala's mutant genes weren't the only surprise in the Ms. Marvel finale. Ms. Marvel's mutant lineage is also a major departure from the comics. That reveal is accompanied by the familiar notes of the 1990s animated X-Men show, teasing that yes, Kamala is a mutant. No Marvel project is complete without an end-credits scene, and after the episode concludes, we see a brief glimpse of Kamala back in her room. Theoretically she and her brother Aamir should have similar DNA, but Kamala's genetic makeup looks a bit different. Marvel's latest Disney+ saga introduced Iman Vellani as the titular hero, a bright-eyed high schooler taking her first steps toward superheroism.

Brie Larson's Carol Danvers got her second new costume in Phase 4 of the MCU.

There is also a little bit of gold on her belt, although blue is the most eye-catching color in this design along with the small portion of red on her shoulders above the Kree insignia. This suit was largely the same one that Larson used at the start of Avengers: Endgame, although there was more gold than red on her shoulders. Even with such a short MCU tenure under her belt so far, Brie Larson's Captain Marvel has built an extensive collection of costumes she's donned since 2019. This look is quite different than her first suit from 2019's Captain Marvel, which took its design almost directly from the Marvel Comics pages. She also has what appear to be golden gauntlets on her wrists below the classic fingerless blue gloves she's worn in past costumes. Carol then flew into the final battle of Avengers: Endgame with a brand new look after five years away from Earth. This time, the blue of her suit was on her shoulders and gauntlets while the red came through on the rest of the outfit, and she appeared to have more protection in her mid-section as well.

The Ms. Marvel finale plot twist will be connected and expanded upon in The Marvels movie, confirms the show's head writer Bisha K. Ali.

Whether or not other Mutants from the comics will actually appear in The Marvels to expand upon the Ms. Marvel finale twist remains to be seen. Without revealing any spoilers, Ali confirms that The Marvels will 100% address Kamala's mutation background while sharing how much fun she had doing that setup in the Ms. Marvel finale. Like most of the MCU shows on Disney+, Ms. Marvel had a 6-episode run, with no word yet on if there will be a season 2. I was excited to help set up all these riddles for you guys that will lead into the movie where the story continues. Kamala learns from Bruno that he had looked into her DNA while comparing it to her family to learn more about her powers. Prior to the show premiering, it was established that Kamala would be joining the Captain Marvel sequel, The Marvels, alongside Brie Larson's Carol Danvers and Teyonah Parris' Monica Rambeau. However, before closing out the Ms. Marvel finale, the MCU drama dropped a big bomb on the viewers by revealing Kamala's origin of powers, which has caused some strong reactions online.

The Marvels will be the next adventure for Ms. Marvel but when does the MCU movie come out in theaters? Let's find out, shall we?

The Marvels premieres in movie theaters on July 28, 2023. Larson will return in the upcoming sequel The Marvels, but she won’t be the only MCU hero reprising her role. Ms. Marvel just recently concluded its run, with fans instantly turning their attention to when we’ll see the character next.

They continue to do the thing that you just would never think would be possible in these films. She added: “And it’s the thing that I love about Marvel, is that they continue to reinvent. “I can’t say enough about how incredible our director, Nia DaCosta, is and what an honor it was to work with her, what an immense talent she is, how much I just feel like she’s the future. It’s been a satisfying and exhilarating ride that teases more to come from the MCU. So, let’s address The Marvels release date. The Disney+ TV shows have even introduced us to recent favourites such as Moon Knight and, of course, Ms Marvel.

Spoiler alert: This article contains spoilers for Ms. Marvel's series finale. With so many new MCU properties coming out between the movies and the Disney ...

But what will The Marvels be about and who will be in the upcoming film? While details about the plot of The Marvels have been kept relatively secret, Marvel fans are full of theories based on the Ms. Marvel finale. However, as different storylines developed in the MCU, Marvel Studios and executive Kevin Feige realized that The Marvels would be a much more fitting name. StarNews Korea also revealed that popular South Korean actor Park Seo-Joon will join The Marvels, but his character is still under wraps. And then we learn that they’ll be back in The Marvels in 2023. Initially, The Marvels was going to be the sequel to Captain Marvel and was referred to as Captain Marvel 2.

The Marvels filmmaker gave us that Ms. Marvel credits scene tease that will lead into whatever is happening in the cosmic sequel from Marvel Studios.

So Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah are left in the dark like the rest of us, and they're theorizing too. Fallah made the bold prediction: "She will be on an adventure." Taika Waititi recently confirmed that he has no additional insight into what's in store for "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3" despite nearly the entire team appearing in "Thor: Love and Thunder." That's how you keep secrets, folks. And we discovered [it was added to the finale] when we were color grading. Looking around the room adorned with endless posters of Carol Danvers in hero mode, the cosmic Avenger looks just as confused as we are. In one of Marvel Studios' signature mid-credits scenes, an exhausted Kamala Khan (Iman Vellani) flops down on her bed as her mother (Zenobia Shroff) can be heard off-screen chastising the teen for not doing her science homework.

Leaked set photos from The Marvels show a big change that the movie is making to Kamala Khan, and it totally ruins one of the MCU's best moments.

By getting rid of the current costume, Marvel is tossing out the emotional connection Kamala — and by proxy, the audience — has with the suit. Sadly, The Marvels' redesign does nothing but waste a great costume and pull the rug out from under a perfect Ms. Marvel scene. While this costume is the one that was used to advertise the series, Kamala doesn't actually get it until this sweet scene at the end of the series. Sadly, because Kamala is getting another costume change in the upcoming movie, it seems like The Marvels is throwing all that away. The show follows her as she tries to balance family, friends, responsibilities, and life as a superhero. Ms. Marvel's finale contained a perfect MCU moment, which The Marvels is already ruining with an apparent costume change.

"She's still gonna be so excited and just so happy to meet, when they finally do get to meet. She's not turning into Carol [on the show]. That's Carol Danvers standing in Kamala's bedroom." "I think [the series] would have really taken it off in a different direction if she'd met [Carol] any sooner than she will meet her, which is in the movie that's coming out next year," Ali said. Warning: this story contains spoilers for Ms. Marvel Episode 6, "No Normal." In the final scene of Marvel Studios series Ms. Marvel, something surprising happens: Kamala Khan (Iman Vellani) somehow switches places with her hero, Carol Danvers (Brie Larson). The post-credits scene sets up Kamala's big-screen crossover with Danvers and Monica Rambeau (Teyonah Parris) in The Marvels, director Nia DaCosta's Captain Marvel sequel set to open in theaters on July 28, 2023. "I think maybe she's in space somewhere," El Arbi theorized with a laugh. "Maybe she's in some universe.

He didn’t get any of that, and only gets a second-hand reporting of her death from Kamala. He has grief not only for the fact that his mother is gone but also over the version of the relationship he didn’t get to have with her. Kamala understands Muneeba more and is more open to her love, and Muneeba understands Kamala more and knows how to love her in the way she needs. In the first episode, a member of Kamala’s family says, “Every Pakistani family has a partition story.” Partition is a familiar and painful trauma for so many Indian and Pakistani families, and as the season unfolds, we learn more about their experience, albeit with a magical twist. This is a moment in which Kamala bears witness to her mother and grandmother, and that really heals them together. It’s almost like a prayer: I need to be bigger than myself in this moment to fight this, and I don’t know if I’ve been bigger than myself in the past. But in the finale, once the family has returned from Pakistan, her mother gives her another gift: a Ms. Marvel costume that feels a lot more like her. Going back to the first episode, Kamala feels humiliated when her parents surprise her with a baggy, green, Hulk-inspired shalwar kameez. I’m not involved in The Marvels, but they read our show in the process of writing their movie. Ali: I can’t say a single thing about where it’s going to lead, but I’m really excited to see the collision of these two characters. The character, played by Canadian Pakistani actor Iman Vellani, is set to appear in the upcoming film The Marvels, directed by Nia DaCosta and also starring Brie Larson in her role as Carol Danvers, a.k.a. Captain Marvel. That film isn’t scheduled to premiere for a year—its release date is in July of 2023—but the creative team behind Ms. Marvel left viewers plenty to chew on between now and then. In the season finale of Ms. Marvel, which dropped July 13 on Disney+, the teen superhero is able to draw on her ability to “embiggen” when she needs it most—stretching out her limbs to become a bigger, more powerful version of herself. After fighting to keep the world from collapsing in on itself—all while balancing the tensions of being the daughter in a Muslim immigrant household, sneaking out to attend Avenger Con, traveling to Pakistan, and learning about her family history—Kamala is ready to become Ms. Marvel.

Iman Vellani teased that Kamala Khan's MCU return after The Marvels would be inspired by Spider-Man's comeback after Captain America: Civil War.

It would be tricky to include such a reference, but the franchise could still have plans for the Terrigen-infused first family down the line. At this stage, the two heroes (Kamala and Peter) have similar narrative trajectories in the interconnected universe, and Feige's comparison is a fitting one. Vellani already said that she was surprised to learn that she's a "main character" in The Marvels instead of a cameo. Vellani: "I’m so happy you mentioned Lockjaw. I have been trying to get a Lockjaw Easter egg, and it didn’t happen. In Marvel Comics, Kamala has the ability to stretch, grow, and shapeshift. As a comic book fan, Vellani admitted that she was confused at first upon learning about the power change. “We’re invested in these characters because of their motivations and because of who they are and their humanity. I didn’t know what I needed to do a 10 to 14-hour workday. “I didn’t know how to take care of myself on the show. The MCU actress discussed her exciting first encounter with the Captain Marvel star: “Because of Marvel security, we can’t just be walking around in our super suits. “It would be fun to see Kamala post-‘The Marvels’ after she’s fought with her idol.
