MCU: The Marvels and Beyond

As their location-swapping has revealed, somehow Monica’s magically (?) granted powers, Carol Danvers’ cosmic powers, and Kamala Khan’s extradimensional/mutant powers are linked in some unknown way. And that’s pretty much all we know about The Marvels so far—in fact, we don’t even know what, if any, superhero moniker Monica will choose. Regardless, since she’s played such an important role in the Avengers in the comics, she’s almost certainly a lock to join the new incarnation of the team when Avengers: The Kang Dynasty and Secret Wars premiere in 2025. If past is prologue, it seems plausible that Teyonah Parris will take Brie Larsen’s place in the MCU once she’s done, and perhaps Monica may eventually even lead the Avengers. We’ll find out when we find out, but for now, the character’s future seems bright indeed (pun obviously intended).
