Here’s something a bit unexpected.
It turns out that Ms. Marvel will have a tie to Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. At least, that’s according to directors Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah. Speaking about the show’s distinct style, they said:
“For us, we always wanted to find a way to translate her imagination and her fantasy worlds in a cool way. That’s where we came up with the idea of injecting that animation aspect to it. But we were a bit afraid that Kevin and the rest of Marvel would say no because it’s different from the other shows in the MCU. So we made a whole presentation with videos and all that explaining why it was important to have those sequences. And, surprisingly, he said yes! He said, ‘Don’t go overboard, don’t do it every five seconds, but it’s true to the story and the character, let’s go for it.’ That’s how we had that style. It’s also very inspired by Into the Spider-Verse, so, thank you Kevin for allowing us to do that.”
Continuing on, they explained:
“We needed to set her up right. That’s why we wanted to add animation to it. It was not in the script, we wanted to get into her head, into her fantasy. We wanted to have an endearing and charming character. And have someone that Muslim girls all over the world can relate to, but also tell that universal story everybody can feel a connection with.”
So, it sounds like more of a stylistic connection than anything else, but it should still add a nice bit of flair to Ms. Marvel, which will be with us this coming week.
