She rose to fame after being cast in this series and earned a lot of fame in a short period. And not only does this moment celebrate Iman’s onscreen debut. But it also marks the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s very-first on-screen Muslim superhero. In this popular series, she plays the character of Kamala Khan who is a high-school student dealing with typical teenage issues such as angst and growing pains. But in the comics, the phrase “growing pains” is taken to some very literal levels with Kamala’s ability to shape-shift her impression. And grow her body size to some stunning excessive heights. In the television series, however, those powers have been altered somewhat. But Iman remains happy that an individual of South Asian descent is finally being portrayed to North American audiences as a hero.
