Ms. Marvel is an American television miniseries created by Bisha K. Ali for the streaming service Disney+, based on the Marvel Comics character Kamala Khan / Ms. Marvel. It is intended to be the seventh television series in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) produced by Marvel Studios, sharing continuity with the films of the franchise. Ali serves as head writer with Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah leading the directing team.

Iman Vellani stars as Kamala Khan / Ms. Marvel, with Aramis Knight, Saagar Shaikh, Rish Shah, Zenobia Shroff, Mohan Kapur, and Matt Lintz also starring. The series was announced with Ali's involvement in August 2019. Vellani was cast in September 2020, with El Arbi and Fallah, Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy, and Meera Menon hired as the series' directors. Filming began in early November 2020, shooting in Atlanta, Georgia, and New Jersey, before concluding in Thailand in May 2021.

El Arbi and Fallah, Obaid-Chinoy, and Menon directed the series. Filming began in early November 2020 at Trilith Studios in Atlanta, Georgia, with Carmen Cabana serving as a cinematographer. The series was filmed under the working title Jersey. El Arbi and Fallah concluded their episodes on March 5, 2021. Secondary filming occurred in Hudson County, New Jersey, from March to early April. Vellani and Shah continued to film scenes in Atlanta through late April and early May.

Obaid-Chinoy began filming the fourth and fifth episodes in Thailand by March 23, specifically in Bangkok and at the Studio Park facilities,  with Jules O'Loughlin serving as cinematographer for those episodes. Given the series' strict COVID-19 protocols, Ms. Marvel was able to obtain a waiver from the Thai government to continue filming in the country throughout April and May 2021 despite new restrictions put in place in April that suspended other film and television productions. The cast and crew of 450 people were divided into three bubbles in order for production to continue if a positive test was found in one of the bubbles. Filming for the series concluded in Thailand in early May 2021. Reshoots, with Obaid-Chinoy directing, occurred at the end of January 2022.

Captain Marvel star Brie Larson expressed interest in including Ms. Marvel in that film's sequel, and Vellani was confirmed to be appearing in the Captain Marvel sequel, The Marvels (2023) in December 2020.  In February 2021, Kevin Feige revealed that Ms. Marvel would set-up The Marvels. Additionally, Shaikh, Shroff, and Kapur reprise their respective roles as Khan's family members in The Marvels.

Ms. Marvel is scheduled to premiere on June 8, 2022, and will consist of six episodes. It will be part of Phase Four of the MCU. The series will serve as set-up for the film The Marvels (2023), in which Vellani will reprise her role as Khan along with additional cast members from the series.

Synopsis : 
Iman Vellani plays Kamala Khan aka Ms Marvel, a Muslim-American teenager living in Jersey City. An avid video game fan and insatiable fan fiction writer, she loves superheroes, who fire her imagination (especially Captain Marvel). But she struggles to fit in at home and at school, until she discovers she has superpowers similar to those of her heroes. She then tells herself, perhaps a little prematurely, that everything will work out...
