Iman Vellani AMA What’s up r/marvelstudios, I'm Iman Vellani—AKA the one and only Kamala Khan, AKA Ms. Marvel! AMA! Spoiler

Hello to all variants out here! It’s Iman…Vellani. I’ve been lurking on these subs in the shadows as a huge fan and now that I have successfully infiltrated the mcu it’s time to spill the tea for you all…Or like a couple drops of friendly juice that won’t get me fired :) Now that the show is finally out I feel like I can breathe and interact with you guys, so please ask away and I’ll answer whatever I can before The Almighty Feige calls and tells me to stop. Excited to see what y’all come up with at 2:30PM ET/ 11:30 AM PT!!!

Hi Iman! I've been a huge fan of Ms. Marvel since #1 and I have to say, you absolutely nailed the character and the show, fantastic job all around. I've got two small questions:

  • Are you a fan / have you watched Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.?

  • Now that Kamala is a mutant (which is dope), is a part of you sad that your character won't have that Inhuman connection? Especially with best boy Lockjaw!

Thank you so much for doing this! MVP

Hi! i have seen AoS and i personally love the earlier seasons, its not my favourite show but it certainly has merit!! And no i'm not sad we aren't gonna see the inhuman connection. i love the comics and the inhumans but they are such wild and over the top characters in the best way possible and i think those stories work best in that medium, i dont need to see all my favourite characters in live action tbh. The MCU doesn't establish which characters from the comics are worthy of a larger platform or which characters are most popular. there are so many comic characters that i honestly dont want in the MCU because i just love those comics toooooo much...but hey! thats just one girls opinion, pls dont come at me :)

No mention of Lockjaw. Everyone: Lockjaw confirmed in The Marvels!

The one part of that show I liked and want back (Besides Mount).

Ramsey Bolton as Maximus is truly inspired casting

I love Lockjaw with Kamala in the comics too. I hope they bring him into the MCU even if the rest of the royal family don’t make it in.
