In the closing few moments of Avengers: Infinity War, Thanos used the power of the Infinity Stones to wipe out half of all life in the universe. There was nothing Earth's Mightiest Heroes could do, and it wasn't until Ant-Man emerged from the Quantum Realm five years later that they were able to undo the damage caused by the Mad Titan.
While Marvel Studios has since addressed The Blip, there are only a handful of new characters (Monica Rambeau and Yelena Belova, for example) whose status during that time has been tackled in a meaningful way.
In Ms. Marvel, we're left with no indications whatsoever that the Khan family was negatively affected by what happened. However, directors Bilall Fallah and Adil El Arbi have now shared their thoughts on the possibility during a recent interview with The Direct.
"Well, I would assume that, seeing how the family dynamic is with them, I have a feeling that none of them got snapped," the duo explained. "But whenever we ask Kevin about, 'What about The Snap or The Blip? Do we reference it at all?' He would say, 'Don’t worry about it. Focus on the story, focus just on that, don’t ask too many questions about other movies, other shows and all that.'"
"That was sort of his mantra for Ms. Marvel," they concluded.
It's now been three years since Avengers: Endgame was released, and while it is a shame that this five-year period has been glossed over, making it a talking point in every TV show and movie could become tedious. It would also force storytellers like Fallah and El Arbi to zero in on the minutia of what happened to every member of Kamala's family during The Blip rather than focusing on the present.
We're going to take this as an answer, though, and it does make sense given what we saw from that Khan family dynamic.
All six episodes of Ms. Marvel are now streaming on Disney+.
