There’s potential here. Though I hope Kamala is more goofy in the show like she is in the comics. The actress is a bit low energy for me. But, again, she has potential.
Ms. Marvel, the initial run, was one of my favorite comics to come out of Marvel. And if you haven’t read it, I would recommend it a million times over. The lead, Kamala Khan is Gen Y’s answer to Peter Parker. Awkward, sweet, kind hearted, down to earth, blue collar and just trying their best. If you like Spider-Man, you will like Ms. Marvel.
I was just hoping for more Jersey accents for the show.
I was thinking about this the other day. Last year, all of Marvel’s shows featured characters who were well-known and had gained a sizable fandom among casual viewers. Loki, Hawkeye, Wanda, Vision, Falcon, and Bucky were all in massive blockbuster movies that everyone saw, so there was strong familiarity built into those shows.
With this and Moonknight, there will not be a built-in general audience for these characters. So it will be interesting to see how they perform.
Now, by far the MCU’s greatest strength is its ability to take characters who were not in the general consciousness and make them iconic, so I have plenty of faith in them pulling it off. To that point, I don’t know much about Kamala Khan, but I’m excited for this.
I don’t know. There’s a lot of changed material here. I guess she’s not actually powered by anything but the cosmic bands which means she’s not Inhuman which changes her whole thing imo. Her human side story should be ok if they stay true. This could mean she ends up going to space though and since the MCU is building their cosmic phase right now it makes sense. I’ll watch it, but I don’t know.
Disney+ is clearly allowing Marvel to explore and bring to light additional lesser-known Marvel heroes and I’m all for it.
As someone who loves all things Marvel I can’t say I’ll be able to catch every series they roll out in addition to their normal-fare MCU movies but content that caters to whomever is willing to dive in is a win-win IMO.
Am I the only person that read this headline and thought it said “Marvelous Mrs Maisel” and was super confused why there was a trailer for it on Disney+.
I understand the CGI aspect. Though changing her powers is a little weird to me. Are you changing the entirety of her character?
I never associated her with Mr. Fantastic. They were/are two very different characters. I loved the inhuman aspect. Not sure why they’re trying to mimic Cpt. Marvels powers though, the only similarity is that Kamala took her old costume and name for inspiration. Not sure where they’re going with this, but Kamala was never overpowered. That’s what made her so fun to read.
I’m intrigued to see what they do, but switching up the power scheme changes the character completely. Imo. Basically just made her into Nova minus the helmet.
I kind of hate how this looks less like a marvel show and more like a Disney kids sitcom, but I also dont really want to say mean things about young actresses and contribute to general negativity.
Conclusion: I’m a forty year old dude, this isn’t for me, and God help me if it were.
This looks like a CW show but with a higher budget I don’t know if it’s because I’m not the target audience but I’m not intrigued or interested for this.
lowkey devastated she doesn’t have the big, mutated hands

Who do we think the 4 people are at 1:20? Could those be Inhumans?
I did not expect the Stargirl vibes.
Meh

The Marvelous Mrs. Marvel? I hope Tony Shalhoub is in this one too.
Didn’t want to make another stretchy superhero before reed richards shows up huh lol

I’m not too familiar with this character. After playing the avengers game, I throught she just had stretchy powers like Mr Fantastic.
Seems to be more than that. Someone fill me in a little?
looks like ass tbh
I can’t even pretend to care about this, but then again I’m pretty sure I’m not the target audience.

No giant hands, no teleporting space bulldog, no care.
What’s the point in changing her powers lol? There’s already multiple super soldiers, multiple spider men, and multiple people with iron suits.
Not a good sign when the trailer drops and Green Lantern immediately starts trending on Twitter.
This looks like something that escaped the CW.
I really hate that they changed her powers.
not gonna lie, i thought that day would never come but i for real dont want to see a marvel production, this looks so generic and just not good
Bold move to change both her powers and appearance, not sure how to feel about this.
I want this to be good but I’m not feeling the main actresses line delivery or the special effects. Hopefully it’s just a trailer issue.

Biggest concern is how young the cast is. Holland had plenty of A listers to help him. Kate Bishop had Hawkeye. This just looks like a bunch of teens.
Obviously they are catering to a younger target demo here, but the delivery of a lot of these lines hit me more like “Disney channel” than “MCU”
Looks like a CW or Nickelodeon show with a slightly higher budget.
The show could be good but trailer doesn’t inspire confidence for me.
This looks great for tweens! They’re gonna love it
Marvel fans in droves out here trying to downvote anyone having a different opinion than theirs

This just straight up does not look good im sorry, also it looks very cheap for something in the marvel universe
