Did you know
Who is Prince Yan of Aladna?
Prince Yan comes from an alien planet called Aladna where only women can choose their mates and interestingly, on this planet, everyone communicates in rhymes.
When Yan was a kid, mutant Lila Cheney visited his planet and they got engaged.
Years later, the royal family forces Cheney to get married to Yan, even though both of them are not interested in taking the plunge.
Storyline
How's Yan connected to Captain Marvel?
The first appearance of Prince Yan happened in Captain Marvel #9, Vol.8 comic book, in 2014.
In the book, when Captain Marvel visits Aladna, the Prince requests her to help him stop his wedding ceremony by objecting.
But before anything could happen, an evil alien named Marlo appears and interrupts the ceremony as she intends to rule the planet Aladna by marrying Prince Yan.
Speculations
It's unlikely that Park will have a significant role
As against the book which gives emphasis on Yan, it's unlikely that Park will have a significant role in the upcoming film.
This speculation was rife from the press release that listed Park as the last in the casting lineup indicating his role being smaller than others.
This could also suggest that the Aladna planet won't have a huge part in the film either.
