In 2023, the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) will reach a significant milestone with the highly anticipated release of Ms. Marvel. This groundbreaking TV show will mark the first time a Marvel Disney+ series becomes available to watch outside of the streaming platform, signaling a new era for the franchise. Interestingly, the release of Ms. Marvel coincides with the nearly three-year anniversary of the finale of Agents of SHIELD, which marked the end of the MCU’s original TV releases such as Agent Carter and Inhumans.
Disney has made an exciting announcement surrounding Ms. Marvel. The Emmy-nominated show, starring the talented Iman Vellani as Kamala Khan, will be airing on ABC in the United States as part of the esteemed program “The Wonderful World of Disney” on two consecutive Saturday nights. Marvel Studios and Disney have strategically chosen this path to introduce more viewers to the captivating character before her highly anticipated debut in the upcoming film The Marvels, scheduled for release in November. The ABC debut provides a fantastic opportunity for fans to become acquainted with Ms. Marvel before she joins forces with Brie Larson‘s Captain Marvel in the thrilling sequel.
Due to the ongoing WGA and SAG strikes, all active Marvel productions have temporarily halted. Within this context, the release of Ms. Marvel on ABC offers a unique perspective into Disney’s future plans. Bob Iger, Disney’s CEO, recently announced their intention to scale back on producing new Marvel and Star Wars projects. He expressed concerns about the dilution of quality due to oversaturation. By broadcasting Ms. Marvel on a traditional network like ABC, Disney aims to showcase their long-term strategies and demonstrate how they plan to navigate these changes. The first three episodes of Ms. Marvel will air from 8pm ET to 11pm ET on Saturday, August 5th, followed by the final three episodes on the same time the following Saturday, August 12th. It’s important to note that this does not mean Ms. Marvel will be removed from Disney+ like some of the platform’s other recent shows.
What Made Ms. Marvel Special?
By the conclusion of the series, Ms. Marvel had masterfully intertwined its narrative to both serve the greater purpose of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, laying the foundations for The Marvels, and portray an intimate family dynamic. Kamala Khan, a young Pakistani girl from New Jersey, embarked on a challenging journey of balancing her life as a teenager and a superhero. Alongside discovering her newfound abilities, she embarked on a parallel adventure, exploring her family’s rich heritage that took her across the globe, including Pakistan. This captivating journey also delved into the history of British Occupied India and the Indian Partition, and even delved into the realm of time travel to uncover the secrets of the past.
Kamala’s story continues in The Marvels, where she will stand alongside her idol, Carol Danvers (Larson), and Teyonah Parris‘ Monica Rambeau. The film is set for release on November 10. Watch the teaser below for a sneak peek.
