Ms. Marvelstar Iman Vellani wants the show to return for season 2 – so she’s easing off Kevin Feige.
But, Vellani has turned over a new leaf. “I’m trying not to give him a hard time right now until I get [Ms. Marvel] season 2, and then maybe I’ll email him another 72 questions,” she toldThe Hollywood Reporter. “Yeah, I’m taking it easy. If he says the MCU is [Earth-] 616, I’ll let him believe that.”
If you’re wondering how Feige reacted to the 616 correction, Vellani revealed he took it in good humor. “No lol after I said that on the Ms. Marvel carpet, I saw Kevin the next day and he just stared at me from a far and gestured 6-1-6 with his fingers and walked away…I think about that every night before bed,” she shared onReddit.
There’s been no word on Ms. Marvel season 2 since the show released last year, but Vellani discussed the possibility with The Hollywood Reporter. “I am patient, and honestly, I hope all the love that Kamala is getting from this movie inspires people to be more vocal about wanting a season 2,” she said. “I would absolutely love to continue this story, and Kamala and her entire community has so much story left to tell. I want to see Bruno [Matt Lintz] again. I want to see Nakia [Yasmeen Fletcher] again, and that’s just me. So it would be really amazing to have a season two, and there’s so many different directions we can go with it. "
Vellani can currently be seen inThe Marvels, which is in theaters now. For much more on the movie, check out our deep dives on:
