Avengers: Endgame - 11 New Heroes It Could Introduce
7. Ms. Marvel
Marvel Comics
Carol Danvers may have been the first to go by the name of Ms. Marvel in the comics, but the identity has been used by a different figure for sometime now - Kamala Khan.
Kamala was first introduced in 2013 as a Pakastani American teen who is given powers when exposed to the Terrigen Mists, an Inhuman device that unlocked hidden superpowers from within hundreds of people. Kamala, gifted with the ability to shapeshift, then took on the identity of Ms. Marvel to honour her idol Carol Danvers, who was now going by the name of Captain Marvel.
Ms. Marvel has proven to be a massive success since her introduction six years ago, and the good news is that Marvel Studios have already hinted at her potential inclusion in Phase 4. Speaking to the BBC (via CBR), Feige confirmed that Ms. Marvel's introduction is "in the works." This was just before Infinity War's premiere, so could it be possible she's coming to the franchise with Endgame?
WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well.
In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
