Marvel actress Iman Vellani gets honest about the body image pressure of wearing a superhero suit

Iman Vellani is opening up about the hidden physical expectations of playing a live-action superhero. While attending the New York premiere of 'Animal Farm' on April 21, 2026, the 'Miss Marvel' actress admitted she feels constantly hyper-aware of her body while wearing a "tight super suit" on set. Vellani explained that taking on a new voiceover role for director Andy Serkis was a major relief, allowing her to finally act with "total abandon" without worrying about her physical appearance.
