Ms. Marvel is Marvel’s newest Disney+ series debuting next week. Due to the release coming so soon, some fans have gotten an early look at the series. Surprisingly, they have been impressed with what they saw and claim that the series will be a “refreshing” look at the MCU.
Several fans were concerned about the series after hearing about all the crazy changes to Ms. Marvel with her powers being revamped and ditching her Inhuman origins for the show. After seeing Anson Mount’s Black Bolt in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (2022), fans were sad that Marvel wouldn’t use this show to introduce fans to the Inhumans.

Instead, Marvel is staying as far away as possible from the group, leaving fans to wonder what will happen with the Inhumans. Since Ms. Marvel debuts in less than a week, The Hollywood Reporter sat down with Iman Vellani. The new MCU star shared her experiences with different Marvel stars such as Brie Larson, and Teyonah Parris. Chris Pratt also helped Vellani as she sent him an email asking for advice on press and he sent a “juggernaut” email on what to do:
“He made himself so available for any help I would need in the future, so I shot him an email asking about press and stuff and he sent me this juggernaut of an email with so much advice and what’s gotten him through this.”

Chris Pratt has been known to be helpful and is loved by his MCU costars. With the actor coming back to Marvel for a few projects, some fans wonder if Star-Lord could end up making an appearance in The Marvels and if that was why Vellani had Pratt’s email and was able to reach out to him.
It wouldn’t be that surprising if the Guardians of the Galaxy did appear in the movie since The Marvels could easily take place across the cosmos and the Guardians crew are usually the number one super hero team fighting the bad guys in space. Even though it would be awesome to see, at the very least fans will get to see Pratt as Star-Lord for three more projects as he will be in Thor: Love and Thunder (2022), Guardians of the Galaxy: Holiday Special, and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 (2023).
