Ms Marvel creator Bisha K. Ali explains how spun Partition into the series #IndiaNEWS #Cinema /Showbiz,Hollywood
Los Angeles, July 14 (IANS) Bisha K. Ali, British-Pakistani standup comedian and creator of the much-acclaimed Ms. Marvel miniseries, has shared how the Partition became an important part of shows narrative.
Speaking to Variety, Ali said the idea of toying around with Partition came very, very, very early to her. It was in the first week itself that this happened.
She told Variety: We put up a timeline of when weve seen events take place generally in the MCU. I started looking back on some of the other movies, at Captain America: The First Avenger. Thats essentially a period piece and I was like, Okay, so after World War II, what was happening in Kamalas (lead character) family?.
Explaining her thought process to Variety, Ali continued: So 1945, World War II. 1947 is when Partition happens. So if World War II exists in the MCU, and that part of our history can be canonised, then why not ours? When I laid that timeline out to [Marve Studios President Kevin] Feige, he was like, Oh, cool! I get what youre doing! The history of the world isnt just [of] this one place. There are other places with histories too.
Ali described Kamalas superpower to be the four generations of women of her family, We wanted to make it about looking inwards, and looking into your own family. Rather than the central storyline being about, I dont fit into this world because of who I am, I wanted it to be like, I dont know who I am and I need to go and figure that out. That conflicts more internal rather than us verses them.
She added: Im not really interested in them, because they already minoritised us. Theyve already marginalised us. Cool. Weve seen versions of that, which are brilliant. Thats not what we wanted the show to be. We really want it to be about the us. So that was always the intention from the beginning.
Recollecting what she felt when she took the idea to the Marvel office, Ali told Variety: I felt bananas going in and being like, Hey, so have you guys heard of Partition? There were some interesting conversations there.
