After a particularly potent revelation from Bruno in the Ms. Marvel finale that could potentially shake up the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe, Ms. Marvel is now in the phase where its stars can spend a little time basking in the show’s residual glow as the fanbase grows ever larger. There is perhaps a no better way to do this than via an “ask me anything” session, and that’s exactly what Ms. Marvel star Vellani did in the wake of that shocking finale. But what burning questions did fans bring to the table?

In the refreshingly well-moderated Reddit AMA session, Vellani fielded queries from users regarding all sorts of topics. From curiosity about filming Ms. Marvel to recommendations for her favorite Pakistani food and everything in-between, the young actress offered some great insight into many subjects. One such question came from a user who asked Vellani what movie she would pitch to Marvel Studios if she could pick any. Her response came in the form of an enthusiastic “silversurfer silversurfer silversurfer silversurfer silversurfer silversurfer” with nary a punctuation mark in sight.
An MCU Silver Surfer would definitely be an interesting idea, particularly given how poorly-received the character’s last high-profile appearance was in 2007’s critically panned Fantastic 4: Rise of the Silver Surfer. However, this is just one glimpse into Vellani’s whole deal, and she had a lot more to offer. Fans who participated or even just observed the AMA quickly came to realize that the actress herself shares a number of personality quirks with her character of Kamala Khan/Ms. Marvel. Namely, this includes her infectious enthusiasm.
Several commenters included questions about Vellani’s experience filming the surprisingly short Ms. Marvel, and her responses almost felt like they came from Kamala herself. One post asked about the toughest scene to get through due to laughing, and it turns out her answer was in the finale when Bruno reveals that Kamala is a mutant. Vellani replied, “the take you see in on D+ is one of two takes we got where I didn’t giggle when Matt [Lintz] said the word. I just couldn’t believe it. I still can’t say that word IRL without letting out what sounds like a Ron Swanson giggle.”
Others discussed Vellani’s favorite movies, her thoughts on the differences between the comics and the show, and even whether she’s Team Kamran or Team Bruno, the latter of which she gave an extensive reply going over the pros and cons of both potential love interests before adding, “I can’t sleep at night….” If this is the sort of energy fans have to look forward to when Kamala Khan appears again after that easter egg-filled 6th episode of Ms. Marvel, it looks like the future of Ms. Marvel as a character is a bright one.
Ms. Marvel is available to stream on Disney Plus.
