Iman Vellani in still from Ms. Marvel series
Vellani belongs to a Muslim family and played the character of Kamala, who had the same origin as her. In an interview, she talked about this experience and said,
Growing up, I felt very disconnected from my culture and religion because I grew up in Canada. I didnât have any brown friends that werenât from my mosque and I didnât hang out with them. Filming the show, I learned so much about my ancestry. Thatâs such a special thing I get to share with the character, and thatâs because I was working with so many incredible creators who were from a Muslim or Pakistani background.â check sources The Guardian
Vellani is also cast for the next film of the Marvel franchise titled The Marvel, which will release on 28 July 2023.
