Just yesterday, Brie Larson shared a photo of her prepping for the title role in Captain Marvel. With the caption “Learning how to fly,” the pic showed Larson in full Air Force parachute gear, giving fans a little sneak peek at the civilian side of Carol Danvers. Although filming on her solo movie isn’t set to begin until early February, we didn’t have to wait long — like, at all — for our first look at Larson in full costume as Marvel’s first lady.
We heard rumors a while back that Captain Marvel would make her big screen debut in Avengers 2 before getting her own solo film in a few years, but then heard this was no longer the case. Now, according to a source who has been right about this kind of stuff before, Marvel has secretly cast their Carol Danvers and has plans to introduce her very soon.
