INDIAN STAR SET TO APPEAR IN MARVEL PROJECT
India Today
reported
that Farhan Akhtar has been cast in an unknown Marvel Studios project and is currently in Bangkok filming it.
While Akhtar would not disclose which project this was, it is likely
Ms. Marvel
as it is the only Marvel Studios production currently filming in Bangkok.

It is unknown what role Akhtar will be playing in the series, but considering his stardom in India, it shouldn’t be insignificant.
IS THIS STILL PAKISTAN?
It’s unfortunate how many roles in this show, especially in a setting meant to be taking place in Badin, Pakistan, are going to non-Pakistan actors like Farhan Akhtar, who is Indian.
It’s uncertain at this point how Marvel Studios is going to handle this part of the show when in the comics, this was meant for Kamala Khan to be on her own, reconnecting with herself and her roots.

As for who Akhtar could be playing, most of the supporting cast has already been filled, but it might be related to
Aramis Knight’s Kareem
, a.k.a. Red Dagger. Akhtar could be one of his relatives or many bandits Red Dagger typically stops as a local hero.
Hopefully, the producers and writers handle Kamala’s journey in Pakistan with respect despite the casting issues for the series thus far.
Ms. Marvel
is currently filming and is expected to release in
late 2021
