Ms. Marvel? 902 00:47:09,535 --> 00:47:11,078 I can breathe in this. 903 00:47:11,286 --> 00:47:13,372 -MAN: That's what you need. -That's all I need. 904 00:47:13,497 --> 00:47:15,833 It's the first time we're seeing it on camera with people. 905 00:47:15,916 --> 00:47:17,584 Normally, it's like in my trailer 906 00:47:17,709 --> 00:47:19,586 and they're like, "Oh, the lighting sucks." 907 00:47:21,129 --> 00:47:25,592 But this is it and I'm very happy. Yeah. Now we hide it from the world. 908 00:47:25,717 --> 00:47:29,429 BHASIN: The super suit was the most challenging 909 00:47:29,513 --> 00:47:31,348 and also the most exciting thing. 910 00:47:31,515 --> 00:47:33,183 Because of the situation with COVID 911 00:47:33,267 --> 00:47:36,103 and because of the situation that we were working under, 912 00:47:36,186 --> 00:47:39,648 we decided that we were gonna build the suit ourselves 913 00:47:40,065 --> 00:47:43,360 in-house, in our little, tiny costume shop in Atlanta. 914 00:47:43,569 --> 00:47:47,155 And it was a first time for all of us, building a super suit. 915 00:47:47,281 --> 00:47:50,576 Of course, we had the blueprint of the comic book. 916 00:47:50,701 --> 00:47:54,705 We did refer to that a lot. But it seems like what we landed on 917 00:47:54,788 --> 00:47:59,251 was a sort of hybrid of what's in the comic 918 00:47:59,501 --> 00:48:03,338 and also what Kamala brought to it herself 919 00:48:03,422 --> 00:48:06,383 and what I brought to it and what my crew brought to it. 920 00:48:06,466 --> 00:48:09,052 And it has to perform many, many different tasks. 921 00:48:09,136 --> 00:48:12,347 You know, it has to be a Marvel super suit, 922 00:48:12,431 --> 00:48:14,516 a Pakistani super suit. 923 00:48:14,850 --> 00:48:18,854 A comfortable super suit, a made in-house super suit. 924 00:48:18,937 --> 00:48:25,694 Have Islamic elements, Marvel elements, color elements from Captain Marvel. 925 00:48:25,777 --> 00:48:29,448 But it was a beautiful challenge and I think... 926 00:48:29,531 --> 00:48:31,283 I hope that we rose to it. 927 00:48:31,575 --> 00:48:35,495 The super suit. It's insane. It's very surreal. I was like... 928 00:48:35,996 --> 00:48:39,666 I was literally crying last night because I didn't know how to prep for this. 929 00:48:40,042 --> 00:48:44,713 So I just didn't. But I don't think anyone can prep for this. 930 00:48:45,047 --> 00:48:48,342 You know, I dressed up as Ms. Marvel three years ago for Halloween 931 00:48:48,425 --> 00:48:50,552 and I was like looking at those pictures. 932 00:48:51,595 --> 00:48:54,014 It's insane, the difference. 933 00:48:54,431 --> 00:48:58,393 First of all, I thrifted that whole thing and got my grandma to help me 934 00:48:58,477 --> 00:49:01,521 sew the lightning bolt on and it was like a whole moment 935 00:49:01,605 --> 00:49:05,776 and then, now I'm wearing it in a freaking Marvel Universe 936 00:49:06,276 --> 00:49:12,032 which is... I can't even put it into words how cool this is. 937 00:49:12,616 --> 00:49:15,619 It's very... My heart is very full. 938 00:49:20,123 --> 00:49:22,125 AMANAT: In a lot of ways, this is really 939 00:49:22,209 --> 00:49:25,921 the essence of the Kamala Khan origin story from the comics 940 00:49:26,004 --> 00:49:29,508 but it's also very, very different. It's a true adaptation in every way. 941 00:49:29,633 --> 00:49:32,260 The thing I gravitated towards the most 942 00:49:32,344 --> 00:49:34,012 was this idea of family lineage 943 00:49:34,137 --> 00:49:37,599 and the power that is passed on from one to the other. 944 00:49:37,683 --> 00:49:40,352 I can't do stars, Nani, but I can do circles, okay? 945 00:49:42,020 --> 00:49:47,317 VELLANI: Basically, Kamala has the ability to manifest hard light or Noor. 946 00:49:47,401 --> 00:49:50,821 And she uses it to make platforms and you know, 947 00:49:50,904 --> 00:49:52,656 she can embiggen her fists. 948 00:49:52,864 --> 00:49:56,576 So we got that going for us. It's very different from the comics. 949 00:49:57,452 --> 00:49:59,705 In the comics, Kamala could like shapeshift 950 00:49:59,788 --> 00:50:03,709 and just grow in size and also get really small. 951 00:50:04,710 --> 00:50:06,128 I think there was a conscious effort 952 00:50:06,211 --> 00:50:11,800 to not have her feel like Mr. Fantastic or Elastigirl. 953 00:50:11,925 --> 00:50:14,803 There were some early concepts before I got on that had this idea 954 00:50:14,886 --> 00:50:18,849 that she could manifest armor or parts of her body 955 00:50:18,932 --> 00:50:20,142 in this protective element. 956 00:50:20,225 --> 00:50:22,227 And so I saw this as an opportunity. I mean, how often 957 00:50:22,310 --> 00:50:25,564 do you get to come into the MCU and make up a power from scratch, 958 00:50:25,731 --> 00:50:28,150 which is to me, the most exciting, 959 00:50:28,233 --> 00:50:29,860 the most fun thing you could do. 960 00:50:30,527 --> 00:50:33,697 So, you know, I love this idea that she was able to manipulate 961 00:50:33,780 --> 00:50:35,449 this energy from another source. 962 00:50:35,615 --> 00:50:36,908 You know, Sana described it as, 963 00:50:36,992 --> 00:50:40,120 imagine it if you were like to look at a lens flare and you trap that, 964 00:50:40,412 --> 00:50:43,582 you harden a lens flare that you see with your eye or through optics. 965 00:50:43,915 --> 00:50:45,876 That was an interesting way of describing it. 966 00:50:46,001 --> 00:50:49,171 So I then started building ways 967 00:50:49,254 --> 00:50:51,089 of making what she's building, 968 00:50:51,590 --> 00:50:54,468 this energy that she can create or channel through herself 969 00:50:54,551 --> 00:50:57,888 manifest in our dimension as these objects. 970 00:50:58,305 --> 00:50:59,556 Wow, that's... 971 00:51:00,599 --> 00:51:01,600 amazing. 972 00:51:02,642 --> 00:51:03,810 How does it feel? 973 00:51:05,979 --> 00:51:07,314 Like an idea come to life. 974 00:51:07,647 --> 00:51:11,443 RAHHALI: Platforms allowed her to get to places that you wouldn't be able to. 975 00:51:11,526 --> 00:51:13,945 Like she can't fly but she can certainly run off a building 976 00:51:14,029 --> 00:51:16,490 and continue running across it to another building 977 00:51:16,573 --> 00:51:18,366 or get down to the street level. 978 00:51:18,533 --> 00:51:22,079 She can create walls or shields 979 00:51:22,162 --> 00:51:25,373 and eventually she's able to do things like her embiggened fists, 980 00:51:25,457 --> 00:51:28,668 which are complete...
