Brie Larson is set to have a very important role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Mainly, in that she is set to play Captain Marvel, aka Carol Danvers in both a solo film, and the upcoming Avengers: Infinity War, both parts. Captain Marvel will be the first solo female-led film, and is heralded as one of the strongest, and most liked, characters in the Marvel Universe. So naturally, there’s a lot of pressure on her to get the character right on screen. Larson herself notes that this is true, and even noted to Total Film that she feels a great deal of responsibility about being Captain Marvel: “I feel a great responsibility,” Larson said. “I have so many conversations with fans about the universe and this character in particular. I’m grateful for social media for that, actually — it’s such a great way to connect with people, to understand what it is they love about this character, what it is they hope to see.

When it comes to the scale of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, it can become hard to judge at times who’s the smartest, strongest, and even the fastest character. In regards to the second option, Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige told Vulture that the upcoming Captain Marvel will be the most powerful character they’ve ever introduced in the MCU. “With ‘Captain Marvel,’” he told Vulture, “there’s so much potential in the comics and there have been so many incarnations of her powers and the characters who’ve had that mantle that we’ve been focusing in on exactly how do we tell her origin. How does it fit into the cosmic side of our universe? How does it fit into what we’re doing with the next ‘Avengers’ movies?” He went on about how the powers aren’t meant to define everything about the character: “It’s very important to us that all of our heroes do not become silhouette-perfect cutout icons,” he said. “All of the Marvel characters have flaws to them, all of them

Every time we bring somebody, whether or not it’s a co-starring role, certainly if it’s a starring role, we need to match that bar if it’s even possible. With Carol Danvers, with our first title female super hero in Captain Marvel we could do no less than that.” Feige is, in fact, quite flattered that Larson is so interested in joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe. “The fact that Brie, even after she won her big Academy

Meg LeFauve has been brought in to work with Nicole Perlman on the script for Captain Marvel, and talked with Collider about what they’re doing, and not doing, in the script. “We have not started yet,” LeFauve told Collider. “We just got the phone call to come over to Marvel. But for me personally, the wonderful thing about her and the challenge of her is going to be that she’s a female superhero.” According to LeFauve, the real challenge is not only making her a compelling character, but also making it so that Carol Danvers doesn’t have the “Superman Curse” in regards to her powerset. “And that is awesome because she’s so powerful, and how hard is that going to be because she’s so powerful?” she explained. “We don’t want the Superman curse. ‘What’s

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, a former wrestler know for his appreciation of cooking and smells, is probably going to play a superhero in an upcoming D.C. movie. Which one is still to be revealed, but he’s been dropping some broad hints about it. “The first quality we were looking for was that he had to be extremely complex and have a lot going on. What that does for me as an actor and the studio is it gives us space that we can explore his complexities,” Johnson explained  “The other quality was that he had to — the character we were looking for had to be well-known but never brought to life,” he went on to add. “What that does again as an actor, it gives me a little bit of space, and we talked about personality.
