Featured Video

Ms. Marvel is now streaming on Disney+. The series is the origin story of the superhero, the journey of Kamala Khan – a Pakistani American teen who becomes a superhero. The first episode is out and sets the story for the character really well. The episode was just the introduction of Kamala who is a teen with a very vivid imagination and always fantasizes about superheroes, especially Captain Marvel. Iman Vellani does a really good job of portraying the character. It is hard to believe that this is her debut. The actor is excellent and you connect to the character instantly. But a fan claims that she was not the original choice.

Back when it was announced that Iman Vellani will be playing the character, an “actress” took Twitter to say that she was the first choice. Her Twitter name was Dua and the id was @LEDOMASFILM. She claimed that Disney had called her to audition. Netizens, as brutal as they always are, said that she was lying. So, to prove herself right she shared portions of the script on Twitter.

Not just scripts, she also showed the NDA she had signed with receipts. The pictures of the script she shared did not reveal much about the plot. It seemed that she still broke the NDA that she has signed and even shared. Many had even signed a petition to get Dua the role. Even posted tweets in her favor. They trolled on Twitter in a recent tweet thread by a fan.

The fans of Ms. Marvel did not go easy on the fan either. They took Twitter to troll her for the tweet she posted. They made fun of how people even went ahead to sign a petition to get her the role. Even trolled the actress yet again for breaking her NDA with Marvel on Twitter. Check out some of the tweets.
