On a break during a fight sequence that will see Ghost battling Wasp for a suitcase (the contents of which we’ll just say are secret), John-Kamen reflected on joining the MCU and what makes her villain different from the finger-snapping Mad Titan.

Ghost has possibly one of the coolest costumes in the MCU. What was it like when you first put on the suit?

Putting on the costume just changes you. It’s amazing how it does that. She’s such a badass and there’s going to be a wow factor when you see her.

How did you react when you got the part of Ghost?

It seems like it’s the best time to be joining the MCU. It’s a huge family and I feel like I’ve been very much welcomed into it. I had the biggest smile on my face when I got the call. Whenever I get a role, I always play a song to celebrate. I put on Miley Cyrus and played Do My Thang. That was my song for this.

How’s your villain different from what we’ve seen in Marvel films that have come before?

Ghost’s objective is very personal… I’d say, ‘Expect the unexpected.’

Did you have to do a lot of research?

I like my comics. I’m already a Marvel fan. I’ve got loads of Marvel graphic novels — DC as well. I’ve grown up on comics and a lot of these characters and villains. Actually, to be honest, villains have always been my favourite characters. Always, always, always. I’ve always thought, ‘I can’t wait to turn the page see what’s next.’ But because in the comics Ghost is a male, this version was completely open to interpretation.
