Marvel/ABC Studios Presents: Ms. Marvel?

It broke that "12 Years a Slave" scribe John Ridley was working on a show for Marvel based in the MCU that would air on ABC and connect to the films.

Marvel Hires John Ridley for MCU Superhero Series on ABC

It appears that it is rumored heavily that it is the Kamala Khan Ms. Marvel character:



She has been popular since her creation



and is taking a leading role after Secret Wars:



So it is definitely plausible.

Here is a reddit link where they claim to know that this is the case:

Isn't there a Ms. Marvel movie coming soon? I know it's a different Ms. Marvel, but can they have two characters with the same name?

It's Captain Marvel. In the Comics, Kamala Khan is an Inhuman (I believe...) and idolizes Carol Danvers (Captain Marvel) so she takes up her old Ms. Marvel name as a homage. The problem is this if true puts the cart before the horse but it'd be an interesting way to go. Some are claiming that they might introduce the actress playing Carol Danvers here before putting her in her own movie since there is a origin before her Captain Marvel persona too. All with a grain of salt of course.

I haven't like the Ms. Marvel comic so far. It's not necessarily bad but just not my thing. I don't like her power and her first villain was some chicken-guy. I'd probably pass on a show unless they made some big changes.

I think it's great. Quite honestly we could do with some more racially diverse characters. I also like it as we could completely run over an origin story for Captain Marvel, and we could just jump right into it [in the film]. Plus after how Agent Carter went down, I don't mind it.

The racial diversity doesn't bug me--I don't care if the characters are white, black, athiest, Hindu, purple, or whatever as long as the story is good. It just seems like too much of a kid book to me, I guess. I'd probably love it if I was younger.

Darn! I wish Marvel would team with netflix more often

Oh, yeah that definitely doesn't bug me, I'd just rather they do it to satiate the *****ing of arrogant *******s that have issues with these kind of things.

I couldn't care less about their skin color, as long as it's pertained to the history and accuracy of their comic sources.

Amen!

Marvel need a superhero tv show on a free to air station. I'd love to see them do Nova, with the limited access they have to Spider-Man the current Nova character really fills a hole and is very spidey-esque

I want to see a film that focuses only on the Nova Corps, like a war film.
