If Rep. Ilhan Omar was not a Marvel fan before, she is now … as the studio announced its first-ever Muslim superhero to headline a series.
We caught up with the congresswoman in DC and she told us it was incredibly exciting … not only seeing our world diversify but also seeing it reflected by Marvel.
Ilhan says representation on this scale is extremely significant … especially for young folks, like her son, who loves watching superhero movies.
ICYMI … Marvel Studios released its trailer for the newest Disney Plus series, “Ms. Marvel” … and the hero is Kamala Khan, played by 19-year-old Iman Vellani. It’s the first time a Muslim woman is being featured in an MCU project.
The future is in her hands.
