Another new member entering the MCU is Kamala Khan, who is also known as Ms. Marvel. Iman Vellani has been cast to play Ms. Marvel and we will first see her in action in her upcoming Disney+ show that is said to be released this summer.
The film features a trio of strong female heroes, played by Brie Larson as Captain Marvel, Iman Vellani as Ms. Marvel, and Teyonah Parris as Monica Rambeau, who are set to bring a new era of female representation to the Marvel universe.

Emilia Clarke will take over the role of G'iah, who is the daughter of Talos and Soren. Clarke will play the daughter as a grown-up, replacing Auden L. Ophuls and Harriet L. Ophuls who played the role in Captain Marvel.
Clarke portrays G'iah, the Skrull daughter of Mendelsohn's character, Talos, who first appeared in Marvel Studios' "Captain Marvel" in 2019. "Talos is kind of like a very high ranking, maybe the leader of the Skrulls," Mendelsohn said. "I'm her dad. I'm 'Daddy Skrull' if you like.
The actress allegedly feels that the franchise was originally sold on her being cast as Captain Marvel before any writers or directors got involved. Larson is apparently not eager to share top billing with her co-stars. The sequel to the 2019 Brie Larson vehicle is titled The Marvels for a simple reason.
But, while the headlines were technically true, Brie Larson wasn't actually replaced as Captain Marvel – not in live-action, at least.
The answer to this conundrum comes in an end-credits scene that reveals Fury is a Skrull. As the end-credits scene of Far From Home reveals, the real Fury is off-planet overseeing the construction of a massive space station.
Now, after Larson is replaced as the cosmic-powered hero, one Marvel project just got a huge, long-awaited update ahead of the release of The Marvels (2023), previously known as Captain Marvel 2.

Popverse has been suspicious for some time, and the episode 'Beloved' confirmed it - James Rhodes is a Skrull. That's right, the same Rhodey who has fought alongside the Avengers as War Machine. Rhodey's behavior in the past few episodes has raised some eyebrows, including the moment where he fired Nick Fury.
In Avengers: Endgame (2019), Fury is restored to life. He attends Stark's funeral and reunites with Danvers. In the post-credits scene of Spider-Man: Far From Home (2019), Fury is working in space on a space station, having recruited Talos and Soren to replace him and Hill and give Stark's glasses to Peter Parker.
Speaking exclusively to RadioTimes.com, director Ali Selim has confirmed that the dark theory that Rhodey has been a Skrull ever since Captain America: Civil War is actually true. "Yep. He's been a Skrull the whole time, yeah," Selim revealed, adding that the reveal has "massive implications" for the MCU.
