Iman Vellani, the breakout star of ‘The Marvels‘ (2023), didn’t hold back in a recent interview, expressing her views on the Avengers franchise, citing it as repetitive and dull, a sentiment many fans share.
Vellani’s dedication to her character, Kamala Khan, is unparalleled. Not only has she portrayed Khan in ‘Ms. Marvel‘ on Disney+ and ‘The Marvels‘ film, but she’s also lent her voice to the upcoming Marvel Zombies series and even contributed to writing a Ms. Marvel comic.
In an interview with ComicBook.com, Vellani expressed her eagerness to explore every avenue with her character, even embracing the idea of bringing Khan to video games, despite her initial reservations about Marvel video games.
She revealed her underwhelming experience with ‘Marvel’s Avengers‘ (2020), confessing that despite her initial excitement, she found the gameplay lacking in innovation and grew bored quickly.
Vellani’s candid critique resonates with many fans who found ‘Marvel’s Avengers’ lacking in originality and hampered by a “pay-to-win” system, despite its roster of beloved Marvel characters.
With Vellani’s rising stardom and the success of titles like ‘Marvel’s Spider-Man 2’ and ‘Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy,’ the prospect of a Ms. Marvel game featuring Vellani is tantalizing for fans, offering a fresh and engaging experience in the Marvel gaming universe.
As Vellani gears up for her next adventure alongside Captain Marvel and Captain Monica Rambeau in ‘The Marvels,’ her candid opinions add an extra layer of anticipation for what’s to come in the ever-expanding Marvel Universe.
