Ms. Marvel‘s season one finale mid-credits scene on Disney+ transported Carol Danvers to Jersey City. Only, it turns out she didn’t swap places with Kamala Khan. The first trailer for The Marvels revealed Carol Danvers and Kamala Khan are also entangled with Monica Rambeau. The three women did a cosmic portal dance. For most kids, that would be terrifying, especially when it results in you floating through space. But Kamala Khan is not most kids. And good thing for her new (sort of) teammates she’s not, because they have bigger problems than their unplanned switcheroos. They’ll need to work together to stop a powerful new enemy.
Ms. Marvel was a perfect MCU introduction to Kamala Khan, but this first trailer for The Marvels promises we’ll get to see one of her most enduring traits on full display in this Captain Marvel sequel. No one loves the Avengers more than Kamala does. And, for Ms. Marvel, the mere idea of getting to be a member of the group far outweighs the obvious peril that comes with her entanglement with Carol Danvers and Monica Rambeau.
That peril comes from Zawe Ashton’s character, who some reports say is playing a Marvel Comics’ Kree General. And it looks like the new trio of interconnected superheroes will deal with the Negative Zone, which is the only “negative” thing about this very fun trailer for The Marvels. Kamala’s joy is infectious.
No matter who or what they face, though, they’ll have some help. Nick Fury is on the job. As is everyone’s favorite not-cat, Goose. GOOSE! Sure, he’s a little scary before you get to know him, as Kamala learns. But so long as you keep him away from your eye, he’s a great ally to have in your kitty corner.
The logline for The Marvels reveals more about what we can expect:
In Marvel Studios’ “The Marvels,” Carol Danvers aka Captain Marvel has reclaimed her identity from the tyrannical Kree and taken revenge on the Supreme Intelligence. But unintended consequences see Carol shouldering the burden of a destabilized universe. When her duties send her to an anomalous wormhole linked to a Kree revolutionary, her powers become entangled with that of Jersey City super-fan Kamala Khan, aka Ms. Marvel, and Carol’s estranged niece, now S.A.B.E.R. astronaut Captain Monica Rambeau. Together, this unlikely trio must team up and learn to work in concert to save the universe as “The Marvels.
Directed by Nia DaCosta (Candyman), the film stars Brie Larson, Teyonah Parris, Iman Vellani, and Samuel L. Jackson. The Marvels teleports to theaters this fall, on November 10, 2023.
