Now that Disney+'s Ms. Marvel has ended with a jaw-dropping twist, we can expect Kamala Khan to return in the Captain Marvel sequel The Marvels. Alongside Iman Vellani, Brie Larson will return as Carol Danvers aka Captain Marvel, and Teyonah Parris will reprise her role as Monica Rambeau. Amazingly, one thrilling addition to this cast is Korean star Park Seo-Joon, who will star for the first time in a Hollywood film, officially joining the MCU.
The Marvels reportedly wrapped up filming last year, but fans are still in the dark about which MCU character the Korean actor will play in the sequel. Now, a recent leak claims that Seo-Joon will be playing Noh-Varr, widely known as Marvel Boy.
See the leak posted by Marvel Updates on Twitter:
There’s no denying that Seo-Joon's physical build is absolutely fitting for the Noh-Varr role. In Marvel Comics, Noh-Varr was a member of the Kree race located in a distant universe. The Kree modified his DNA with cockroach genes to include insect properties, gaining superhuman abilities. Marvel Boy may not be as strong compared to Ms. Marvel and Captain Marvel, but he possesses superhuman reflexes due to his insect DNA properties that enable him to easily dodge bullets and laser beams. He has also demonstrated superhuman strength, speed, and endurance in the source material.
There's not much information revealed about the upcoming film, but recent reports were claiming that The Marvels will be a musical, while another one claims that the Inhumans won't have a part in the sequel.
For now, Marvel Studios hasn't yet unveiled any teasers about the upcoming sequel. Regarding Park Seo-Joon's casting, there are still several Marvel Comics characters who haven't surfaced yet in the MCU, which the actor can play.
The Marvels will premiere on July 28, 2023.
