If you’re a fan of Carol Danvers aka Captain Marvel in the MCU, then you’re in for a treat.
While Carol Danvers was first teased in 2018’s Avengers: Infinity War, she starred in her own MCU movie in the 2019 prequel Captain Marvel. Since that time, the foundations have been set for her to play a leading role in Earth’s mightiest heroes.
Check out The Marvels trailer below!

Now, even with multiverse shenanigans, it’s difficult to picture someone else other than Brie Larson playing the role of Captain Marvel. Brie Larson most recently appeared in The Marvels alongside Captain Marvel bestie, Monica Rambeau (Teyonah Parris) and upcoming starlet, Kamala Khan aka Ms. Marvel (Iman Vellani).
“Captain Marvel has reclaimed her identity from the tyrannical Kree and taken revenge on the Supreme Intelligence. However, unintended consequences see her shouldering the burden of a destabilised universe,” reads the synopsis of The Marvels.
After The Marvels, we don't know exactly what the future holds for Carol Danvers, especially with The Marvels being a worldwide box office flop, grossing around $205 million from its reported $280 million budget, resulting in a massive financial loss.
However, as reported by movieweb.com, according to industry insider Alex Perez of The Cosmic Circus, Captain Marvel could become a co-leader of the Avengers, alongside another popular Marvel character.
What’s more, it is claimed that Captain Marvel might play a role in Avengers: Doomsday, currently expected to arrive in cinemas on 1 May 2026. That is not all, because Perez suggests that she might turn up in Spider-Man 4 with Tom Holland, whenever that might be released.
Of course, at this time, we should take these rumours with a pinch of salt until we get official confirmation. When that official information drops, we’ll be sure to update you right away.
The next Marvel movie to arrive in cinemas is Captain America: Brave New World on 14 February 2025.
