Iman Vellani Says Marvel Has “Assured” Her That Ms. Marvel Will Return
While The Marvels was clearly not the box office success that Marvel Studios was hoping for, it looks like at least one of the film’s stars has been guaranteed that their character’s story will continue.
In a recent interview with Polygon, Iman Vellani divulged that Marvel has “assured” her that there are still future plans for Ms. Marvel.
“I have been assured,” she said. “So that feels good, but there was no more assurance than that. [laugh] They give me breadcrumbs, and I try and make a meal out of it.”
Ms. Marvel Will Carry the MCU Forward
Despite The Marvels’ struggles, Vellani continued to shine as Kamala Khan. In the film, the starry-eyed young superhero not only got a chance to prove her meddle agianst an intergalatic villain, but she got to do so alongside her idol Captain Marvel.
After the credits roll on The Marvels, the film’s final scene depicts Khan recruiting Kate Bishop to join the Young Avengers. With the new superhero team on the horizon, it looks like Vellani is still being set up to carry the MCU forward.
Not Worried About the Box Office
With her future set, Vellani has seemingly taken The Marvels’ box office failure in stride. Shortly after the film’s release, she said she was not focused on the numbers.
“[The box office] has nothing to do with me,” Vellani said. “I’m happy with the finished product, and the people that I care about enjoyed the film. It’s genuinely a good time watching this movie, and that’s all we can ask for with these films. It has superheroes, it take place in space, it’s not that deep and it’s about teamwork and sisterhood. It’s a fun movie, and I’m just so happy that I can share it with people.”
Whether it be in Ms. Marvel season 2 or the Young Avengers, it sounds like Iman Vellani will return.
