“The Marvels” Clip Reveals What Happens When a Superhero and a Superfan Become a Superteam

October 31, 2023

A superhero and a superfan become a superteam—this would be one way of summing up the vibe in The Marvels. In a brand new clip for co-writer/director Nia DaCosta’s upcoming film, we get to see firsthand what happens when Carol Danvers, aka Captain Marvel, goes from a solo act to a team player. Well, sort of. Carol’s got her hands full as she fights off some Kree revolutionaries who mean her nothing but harm, but this time, she’s got the pint-sized powerhouse who also happens to idolize her, Kamala Khan (Iman Vellani, reprising her role from her Disney+ series Ms. Marvel) fighting alongside her. Well, again, sort of. Carol and Kamala are both on the same side, but every time they use their powers, they switch places.

The reason for this temporal oddity is something we’ve learned from previous trailers. When Carol goes to check out an anomalous wormhole in space, her powers end up getting all mixed up with not only Kamala Khan but also Carol’s estranged niece, S.A.B.E.R. astronaut Captain Monica Rambeau (Teyonah Harris). Going forward, these three find that with their powers comes the great responsibility of figuring out the suddenly new setting they’re transported to. It’s a tricky bit of business, and it’ll give The Marvels a unique twist.

These three very different but equally courageous women will need to join forces to take on a Kree revolutionary named Dar-Benn (Zawe Ashton), who really doesn’t like Captain Marvel and threatens to tear down Carol and everyone and everything she holds dear.

Samuel L. Jackson returns as Nick Fury, and he’s joined by Park Seo-joon, Zenobia Shroff, Saagar Shaikh, Mohan Kapur, Jessica Zhou, and Caroline Simonnet.

Higher. Further. Faster. These three words have long been the motto of Captain Marvel, but now that she’s part of a super-team, she’s added another—together.
