..."When I asked her about representations in the show, lead actress Vellani said: “This is one story of one girl of one family and Ms Marvel cannot represent all 2 billion Muslims or all south Asians in the world.
“We wanted to show it as we grew up and we had so many Muslims and south Asians working on the show and they all put so much of their own experiences into Kamala as a character and into the storytelling of it all.”
Ms Marvel may not be relatable for everyone, but it can’t be. However, it’s a great start and I, for one, have resonated with the show so far."
