Creator and lead writer Bisha K. Ali has brought the world of Kamala Khan to vivid life. The Pakistani American highschooler and Avengers fan is frequently chided for daydreaming: usually about her idol Captain Marvel and becoming a superhero, but also about her buff high school crush Kamran (Rish Shah).
But after she discovers a magical bangle that allows her to harness cosmic powers, her flights of fancy become a wonderful, kick-ass reality.
Newcomer Iman Vellani shares the screen with a brilliant ensemble cast, including Matt Lintz as her best friend Bruno, Succession’s Arian Moayed as Damage Control agent P. Cleary, Zenobia Shroff, Fawad Kahan, and Aramis Knight as the vigilante dubbed Red Dagger.
A wildly entertaining series about finding your place in the world, read on below as we explain how to watch Ms. Marvel online from anywhere with a subscription to Disney Plus.

How to watch Ms. Marvel online
Watch Ms. Marvel with the Disney Bundle
Can I watch Ms. Marvel in Pakistan?
Disney Plus does not currently available in Pakistan and that's something of a pity given the heritage of the eponymous character. Fortunately, the powers that be have recognised this and will be giving Ms. Marvel a theatrical release to the world's fifth most populous country.
The first two episodes will arrive in Pakistan on June 16. The third and fourth episodes of Ms. Marvel will hit cinemas on June 30, and the last two episodes are available to watch from July 14.
How to save money on Disney+
While there's no longer a Disney Plus free trial to speak of, the Disney Plus price offers great value and is already cheaper than competing streaming services like Netflix. Yet you can get more bang for your buck when you sign up for an annual subscription and get 15% off the monthly price. Yes, you have to splash a wad of cash initially, but with so much content to get stuck into, we very much doubt you'll run out of things to watch before your year is up. You're looking at $79.99/£79.90/AU$119.99 for a 12-month membership.
If your interests are farther reaching (and you're in the US), then we'd seriously recommend the fantastic value Disney Plus bundle package. It adds Hulu and ESPN Plus to your subscription price, with the Hulu element opening up a world of more adult-focused content, including Hulu Originals like Candy, Conversations with Friends, and Nine Perfect Strangers. Meanwhile, ESPN Plus brings tonnes of exclusive live sport, highlights and documentaries. The combined bundle costs just $13.99 per month.
What else should I know about Disney+?
Ms. Marvel is the latest in a string of high-profile blockbuster releases exclusive to the platform, including Chip N Dale: Rescue Rangers and The Book of Boba Fett. And there's plenty more where those came from, including She-Hulk: Attorney At Law, Andor, and The Mandalorian season 3, which are all set to arrive in the coming weeks and months.
You'll also find National Geographic documentaries, Disney and Pixar classics, the entire Star Wars saga and every season of The Simpsons.
Star on Disney Plus, meanwhile, has seen the amount of content available through Disney Plus more than double, with a particular eye to more grown-up shows. Some of the best Star on Disney Plus shows include Pam and Tommy and Dopesick. And parents won’t have to worry about their kids accidentally seeing inappropriate content, as Star includes a slew of parental control features to ensure the service stays as family-friendly as ever.
Star on Disney Plus is available in the UK, most of Europe, and other select markets like Australia and New Zealand - but not in the US, where the media giant's Hulu service already has very similar ground covered.
So, what devices can you watch Disney Plus on? The streaming service has apps for iOS and Android (of course) and is available to watch online via the likes of Amazon Fire TV Stick, PS4, Xbox One and Roku streaming devices.
