The Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) is breaking new ground with its upcoming film, Captain Marvel 2, titled The Marvels.
The Marvels is one of the year’s most anticipated movies, and the cast features some of the most talented actors in the industry. The Marvels boasts a star-studded cast of lead actors, including two who will make their franchise debuts in a Marvel Disney+ series, marking a first for the MCU.
Phase 4 of the MCU has changed that narrative by introducing characters exclusively through Disney+ shows. While previous movies have included characters introduced in Disney+ shows, only a handful have been billed as leads in a feature film.
With The Marvels, the MCU is taking a big leap forward by including two top-billed lead actors who made their debuts in Marvel Disney+ series.
Iman Vellani, who plays Kamala Khan, and Teyonah Parris, who plays Monica Rambeau, are two of the most exciting additions to the MCU. Vellani debuted in the 2022 Disney+ series, Ms. Marvel, while Parris first appeared in 2021’s WandaVision.
