Months after newcomer Iman Vellani was confirmed to lead Ms. Marvel cast as the titular superhero, pictures from the set have taken the internet by storm!
The photos, shared by Just Jared, reveal Vellani in full costume for the upcoming Disney+ show that focuses on Marvel’s first Muslim superhero, Pakistani-American teenager Kamala Khan aka Ms. Marvel.
The 18-year-old newcomer is seen in what is one of the most comic-accurate costumes in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, a fact that isn’t lost on fans of the now-cult favourite comic heroine.
