In Ms. Marvel, a new TV series from Marvel Studios, we finally get a superhero who is Muslim. Yet considering we never get much insight into any superhero's religion, maybe it would be better to say we get out first superhero who descends from a Middle Eastern culture. Yet Ms. Marvel is still more than that. While much has been made of Spider-Man's youth, our Ms. Marvel hero Kamala Khan is the first superhero on screen who honestly comes across as a real teenager, with all the dreams and aspirations, fears, and frustrations that entails. The TV series is a six-episode miniseries, and will prepare audiences for Ms. Marvel's inclusion in the film The Marvels, set for 2023. Ms. Marvel premiere June 8 on Disney+.

Oh, I didn't realize this is a mini-series. I thought it was a movie in and of itself. Thanks for clearing that up!
Maybe she's a Copt, or a Jew, or a Zoroastrian.
She is a Muslim in the comic it is part of her identity.
Ah, I see. I was unclear based on the commentary.
