While we've known of his involvement for quite some time, the latest TV spot for Marvel Studios' Ms. Marvel features our first look at the mysterious character played by Bollywood star Farhan Akhtar (Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara; Toofaan).
There isn't much to go on, but it does look to be someone Kamala (Iman Vellani) crosses paths with on what appears to be a trip to Pakistan. This lines up with Akthar reportedly being part of the series' Bangkok shoot, as the city had been heavily rumored to serve as a backdrop for Pakistan.
It's hard to say whether he's a friend or foe, but it does sound like he'll offer Kamala some information about her all-powerful bracelet. The Red Dagger (Aramis Knight) is also present in the new footage, so there could be a chance Akhtar's character has some ties to him as well.
Ms. Marvel is now streaming exclusively on Disney+; check out the latest spot below:
Marvel Studios’ “Ms. Marvel” is a new, original series that introduces Kamala Khan, a Muslim American teenager growing up in Jersey City. An avid gamer and a voracious fan-fiction scribe, Kamala is a Super Hero megafan with an oversized imagination—particularly when it comes to Captain Marvel. Yet Kamala feels like she doesn’t fit in at school and sometimes even at home—that is, until she gets superpowers like the heroes she’s always looked up to. Life gets better with superpowers, right?
