Ms. Marvel: We Speak with Mr. Khan himself, Mohan Kapur

Ms. Marvel, the MCU’s seventh television series, and their first Muslim superhero, is now out on our screens and we recently got the chance to speak to Mr. Khan himself, Mohan Kapur, about joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe, representation on television, and the wonder that is Iman Vellani.

Marvel Studios’ Ms. Marvel is a new, original series that introduces Kamala Khan, a Muslim American teenager growing up in Jersey City. An avid gamer and a voracious fan-fiction scribe, Kamala is a Super Hero megafan with an oversized imagination – particularly when it comes to Captain Marvel. Yet Kamala feels like she doesn’t fit in at school and sometimes even at home – that is, until she gets superpowers like the heroes she’s always looked up to. Life gets better with superpowers, right?

Ms. Marvel was created by Bisha K. Ali and stars Iman Vellani, Aramis Knight, Saagar Shaikh, Rish Shah, Zenobia Shroff, Mohan Kapur, Matt Lintz, Yasmeen Fletcher, Laith Nakli, Azhar Usman, Travina Springer, and Nimra Bucha.
