Captain Marvel: Free to Fly Again

Brie Larson is set to reprise her iconic role as Carol Danvers, also known as Captain Marvel, in the upcoming sequel The Marvels (2023). This news comes as a relief to fans of the character, who have been eagerly awaiting the next installment of the franchise.

For those unfamiliar with the history of Captain Marvel, it's worth noting that the character has had a complex and often contentious past. Following a trial in which DC Comics sued Fawcett Comics for breach of copyright, claiming that Fawcett's Captain Marvel was too similar to Superman, the latter stopped publishing Captain Marvel in 1953.

However, Carol Danvers is now the current and best-known incarnation of the character, having been featured prominently in films like Captain Marvel (2019) and Avengers: Endgame (2019), as well as in the Disney+ television series Ms. Marvel. McKenna Grace also played a younger version of the character in these films.

In the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Captain Marvel is part of the larger shared universe known as the Marvel Universe. The character has appeared alongside other iconic superheroes like Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (2021), solidifying their place within the ever-expanding MCU.

With Brie Larson set to reprise her role in The Marvels, fans are eagerly anticipating what's next for Captain Marvel. Whether she'll be taking on new challenges or teaming up with other heroes, one thing is clear: Captain Marvel is ready to take flight once again.
