The latest updates and spoilers for "Captain Marvel" reveal Marvel Studios plans to add comic book fan-favorite Kamala Khan, a.k.a. Ms. Marvel, to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The studio's president, Kevin Feige, told the BBC (via Screen Rant) during the "Avengers: Infinity War" promotional campaign that there is a chance that Kamala will be included in the film universe after they have established Carol Danvers in her own movie.

There is also behind-the-scenes footage of Brie Larson doing stunts for the movie and "Humans" actress Gemma Chan is hinted to play the Kree villain, Doctor Minerva in the live-action film.

Plans for Ms. Marvel in the MCU

According to Kevin Feige, there is a strong possibility that Kamala Khan will make her presence in the MCU very soon after "Captain Marvel's" post-launch plans. Carol Danvers will make her MCU debut and this will be Marvel Studios' first female lead character to have her own film. Unless you count "Electra." Her film will open doors to more female characters, not just in Marvel, but the whole superhero Movies similar to "Wonder Woman."

In the comics, Kamala Khan is a Pakistani-American teenager in New Jersey who is exposed to the Terrigens and becomes an Inhuman with polymorphic powers.

She dons the name Ms. Marvel as she idolizes Carol after she saw her in action. Kamala became popular among the readers and established herself as one of Marvel's must-see heroines. She also became a member of the Avengers after "Secret Wars" and led her own team, The Champions, alongside Nova, Miles Morales, Amadeus Cho, Viv Vision, and the time-displaced Cyclops.

The studio teased before that Kamala could debut in "Spider-Man: Homecoming 2" as a way to introduce teenage heroes like Tom Holland's Peter Parker. Her status as an Inhuman could also factor in since the superpowered species already made a name for themselves in "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." and in their own mini-series.

Doctor Minerva added

"Humans" star Gemma Chan has been added to the cast of "Captain Marvel" after she tweeted a photo of her production chair for the movie. She is hinted to play the role of Doctor Minerva, a Kree scientist who works closely with Mar-Vell and potentially could be one of the antagonists in the film's plot.

There is also a BTS footage of Brie Larson doing stunts in her superhero costume courtesy of Twitter user P.A. Casas. The film will feature returning characters such as Nick Fury, Phil Coulson, Koragg, and Ronan the Accuser. Both Samuel L. Jackson and Clark Gregg will play younger versions of their characters during their time with S.H.I.E.L.D. during the 90s era.
