At Disney’s D23 Expo, Kevin Feige confirmed the development of a Ms. Marvel series for the company’s upcoming streaming service. Now, Production Weekly has released a brand new issue that lists Disney Plus’ Ms. Marvel with a production start date of April 2020 in Atlanta, Georgia.
The outlet also posted the following blurb, giving fans an idea of what to expect from Disney Plus Ms. Marvel series:
The show will center on Marvel’s first Muslim superhero to star in her own comic book title. Ms. Marvel as a comic and heroine has existed since 1976, with the character Carol Danvers using the name for her crime-fighting escapades. The latest incarnation, and the one the show will be focusing on, is a teenager named Kamela Khan. Khan broke ground by becoming Marvel’s first Muslim character to be lead her own comics title. Her identity as a Pakistani American, living in a religious family in New Jersey whilst trying to find her own way, have been a major focus of the stories. Her powers have been described as polymorphous, meaning she has the ability to stretch and change her shape.
