Yasmeen Fletcher is a huge fan of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Ever since she was a child, she’s always wondered how special effects work and how actors act with “basically nothing.” Well, now, Yasmeen has seen it all! She plays “Nakia” in the Disney+ TV series, Ms. Marvel.

“The biggest dream of any MCU fan is to step onto a movie set and see how it’s actually made because everything is larger than life and the special effects are so exciting,” fangirl in Yasmeen also shared.
Sharing more about her experience filming, Yasmeen added that the crew must have been “really frustrated” with them because they kept laughing. “We really easily forgot that we were working on the whole thing,” Yasmeen shared, before mentioning that the cast and crew worked well together, making the script delivery fun.
