Bad Boys for Life directingduo, Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah, helm the Disney+ show, while Bisha K. Ali serves as head writer. Ms. Marvel marks the live-action debut of the character who was first introduced in Marvel Comics in 2014 and was created by Sana Amanat and Stephen Wacker.

So far, Ms. Marvel trailers have shone a light on Kamala's fascination with the Avengers as she comes to grips with her superpowers — something that Vellani shares with her character.
