Why it is here
Carol, Monica, and Kamala swap places on contact, turning body-switch comedy into a cosmic team-up built around unstable jump points and a rupture between realities.
How to watch it
Useful optional context for Monica's unresolved alternate-universe cliffhanger. The film does not identify the rupture as an incursion.
What it sets up
Show spoilers for The Marvels
