Kamala Khan isn't just a kick-ass hero—she represents a big step in Disney's quest for a more diverse MCU.

“I don’t really have to go out of my way and talk about being a Muslim and being Pakistani — it all comes out in the show. “The fact that the show is being made and they’re including this character in the MCU is [what’s important],” Vellani said in an interview with Variety last year. However, as the product of a strict muslim family, Khan consistently struggles with her religion and the pressures put on her by her loved ones, her faith and her ethnicity. Given Marvel is also busy introducing characters like Moon Knight and seems to be moving around other pieces to set up some kind of climactic ensemble film, likely led by Tom Holland's Spider-Man, it's likely we'll see Ms. Marvel feature prominently in future MCU films—however the trailer and plot synopsis surrounding the TV show suggests she'll have to fight her battles solo for now. The title of Ms. Marvel has since passed through 2 other female characters, eventually landing in the hands of current Ms. Marvel Kamala Khan. Khan, a teenage Pakistani-American from New Jersey, is imbued with self-healing and shapeshifting powers. Now though, in a huge step forward, the wider world is set to be introduced to its first mainstream muslim superhero this year.

Ms. Marvel Trailer Breakdown: New Powers and More! (unknown)

The first Ms. Marvel trailer for Marvel's new Disney+ series has arrived, and we took a closer look at how Kamala's powers are being adapted for the screen.

It could be an indication of the source of their power – perhaps a binary star, as it was for Carol’s power-up in the comics. She can become bigger than a building and as small as Ant-Man, if necessary, though it does take a lot out of her, leaving her seriously depleted for the remaining fight. In the comics, Kamala’s powers include the ability to fully transform her entire self to becoming larger or smaller.
