Jessica Alba recently commented at how Marvel is still quite Caucasian and not much has changed since her Fantastic Four days.

Jameela Jamil, who stars in Marvel's upcoming series "She-Hulk: Attorney at Law", responded to Jessica's comments saying that although always room for improvement everywhere, Marvel are way ahead of everyone else in diversity. She listed Black Panther, Ms Marvel, Shang Chi, and She Hulk as some of the recent and upcoming projects that include diverse cast members (those are just a few examples, upcoming MCU projects such as Secret Invasion, The Marvels, Ironheart, Echo, Blade and Captain America: New World Order also have POC as leads).

Jessica Alba replied to Jameela's tweet saying she stands corrected and that a lot HAS changed since her Fantastic Four days and Marvel seems to be leading the way in the diversity department.
