The cast of the much-awaited series is being led by debutant Iman Vellani but also boasts of a bunch of seasoned artists from India and Pakistan including Farhan Akhtar, Fawad Khan and Mehwish Hayat, among others. Following the release of the series, actress Priyanka Chopra has shared a warm note to wish the cast and crew of the project.

Sharing the trailer, she said in a note, “So exciting! I love Ms Marvel and am so excited to see it come to life. Wishing my friends and everyone involved so much love and luck. #representationmatters,” adding, “Go watch Ms Marvel now.”
