When Does Ms. Marvel Take Place in the MCU Timeline?
The latest addition to Marvel Studios’ Phase 4 freshman class has arrived, and it’s none other than the comic book favorite Ms. Marvel. Starring Iman Vellani in the titular role, Ms. Marvel is the second-ever solo origin story for Disney+ and follows teenage Avengers super fan Kamala Khan as she gains powers of her own.
While Oscar Isaac’s Moon Knight steered clear of MCU connections, Ms. Marvel has taken the opposite approach. Her fascination with the Avengers has allowed the show’s creators to pack the series with references, Easter eggs, and tributes which are manifested through her YouTube channel, discussions with friends, and her attendance at Camp Lehigh’s Avengercon.
However, her knowledge of the MCU and its heroes means her series’ place within the Marvel Cinematic Universe timeline is more important than ever. Leading up to Ms. Marvel’s debut, there was speculation about when and where it might fall; and now, thanks to Disney+, fans have the answer.
