Eternals star, Kumail Nanjiani, recently admitted that he wants a Kingo and Ms. Marvel team up in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Directed by Academy Award-winning filmmaker, Chloé Zhao, the superhero ensemble film featured an all-star cast as immortal protectors of Earth.

Unfortunately, Eternals' A-list cast could not save it from middling reviews from both critics and audiences alike. With a rating of 47 percent on the review aggregator site Rotten Tomatoes, the film is rated the lowest out of any MCU film in its history. On the opposite end of the spectrum, the Ms. Marvel Disney+ television series garnered a record 97 percent Fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes, making it the highest entry in all of the MCU, film and television included, and one star is eager to share some screen time with the young new hero.

While speaking on the Bingeworthy podcast (via ThePlaylist), Eternals star Kumail Nanjiani revealed that he wants a Kingo and Ms. Marvel team up in the MCU. The comedian admitted that he had met Iman Vellani — the young actor who portrays Kamala Khan/Ms. Marvel — and gave her nothing but praise regarding her personality and her performance on the popular show. Read what Nanjiani said about Vellani below:

I would love to pair up with Ms. Marvel! I just love that show and I thought Iman [Vellani] was so good, and I just got to meet her and hang out with her for the first time, and she’s just such a talented actor and such a wonderful human being and I think we’d be great on screen together. I’d love to be paired up with Ms. Marvel.

How A Ms. Marvel & Kingo Team Up Could Happen

Kingo, Sprite, Ikaris, Sersi reunite in Eternals

The Eternals were placed on Earth to protect it from their arch-enemies, the Deviants. After seemingly defeating them, the creatures returned thousands of years later forcing the team to reunite to fight for the planet's survival. However, the Eternals eventually learned the truth of their existence as they were merely the caretakers of a planet-sized egg housing a giant intergalactic being known as a celestial. Although Kingo chose not to participate in the final battle against he was lifted into space by Arishem in judgment for their sacrifice of celestial.

For Kingo and Ms. Marvel to team up in some way, Kingo would likely have to return to Earth following Arishem's decision on the fate of the planet. However, it is also possible that Captain Marvel could take Ms. Marvel far beyond the Earth's galaxy, to where Arishem resides, and encounter Kingo wherever the celestial is holding him, Sersi, and Phastos. Given Ms. Marvel ended with Vellani and Brie Larson's Captain Marvel swapping places, leading into the space-set The Marvels, the door is open for the young hero to encounter Nanjiani's immortal protector at some point. With Nanjiani previously revealing that he has no information regarding the future of his character and an Eternals sequel, audiences will have to be patient for any future MCU updates regarding a potential Kingo and Ms. Marvel collaboration.
