Marvel
Studios
has
released
the
full
length
trailer
for
its
anticipated
desi
superhero
representation
aka
Ms
Marvel.
The
new
original
series
set
to
release
on
Disney+
Hotstar
will
introduce
a
new
superhero,
Muslim-American
teen
Kamala
Khan,
played
by
Iman
Vellani.
While
Iman
Vellani's
casting
impressed
everyone,
fans
are
excited
about
the
show
exploring
diverse
characters
in
Marvel.
The
trailer
for
the
show
begins
with
Kamala's
mundane
High
school
life
where
she
dreams
about
being
a
superhero,
going
on
dates
with
boys
and
having
fun
with
friends.
The
trailer
shows
her
talking
to
her
school
guidance
counsellor,
who
suggests
that
she
spends
too
much
time
in
her
imagination.
The
6-part
series
will
be
exploring
her
double
life
as
a
high
school
student
and
unique
responsibilities
of
being
a
superhero
with
new
superpowers.
Kamala
is
shown
as
a
teenager
from
Jersey
City
who
is
a
major
Avengers
fan,
an
aspiring
artist
and
an
avid
gamer.
Take
a
look
at
the
trailer:
Reacting
to
the
trailer,
some
fans
expressed
concern
for
changing
the
character's
origin
story
and
her
powers.
One
fan
wrote,
"Ruined
her
powers.
I
get
having
to
modify
the
origin,
doesn't
seem
that
was
handled
well
either,
but
you
can't
change
her
powers
to
something
completely
different."
Another
added,
"Besides
from
the
power
change,
this
looks
promising
and
fun."
One
commented,
"Don't
know
about
the
weird
glowing
power
change,
but
Kamala
as
herself
is
on
point
with
her
personality."
Another
fan
wrote,
"I'm
still
a
little
on
the
fence
about
the
fact
that
they
changed
her
powers,
but
everything
else
looks
so
on
point."
Meanwhile,
the
show
which
was
expected
to
star
Farhan
Akhtar
and
Fawad
Khan,
did
not
feature
either
of
the
actors

the
trailer.
The
show
also
stars
Saagar
Shaikh,
Aramis
Knight,
Matt
Lintz,
Zenobia
Shroff,
and
Mohan
Kapur,
in
pivotal
roles.
Ms
Marvel,
