Iman Vellani landed the role of Ms. Marvel via WhatsApp. Speaking on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Iman said: "My aunt forwarded me a WhatsApp of the casting call. I sent in a very academic resumé and the only head shot I had. I sent in my self-tape at 3am and then the next day I get a call, ‘Do you have a lawyer? We want to fly you to LA’ and I was like, ‘I have a math test but we’ll figure this out’." [Disney+]
