If there isnt a decent pickup in, back story-small skrimish-endless chat-massive battle formula to all these films, i think its time to call it a day.

Can we expect an appearance in Infinity War 1 or 2

Avengers 3 & 4 will no longer be a two-part Infinity War story but iirc, Captain Marvel comes out between those 2 movies so I'd say we can count on seeing her in Avengers 4.

Infinity War is only going to be a single film now?

I just tried to find a source to support my assertion cos I can't remember where I read it but literally every article I've found has called Infinity War "the upcoming two-parter" so maybe take that with a pinch of salt for now...

Got it:

Indeed. I hope she fares better then the last actress to go from Oscar winner to comicbook character... Poory Halle Berry, still, with the right amount of booze on board Catwoman is a minor camp classic

Wow they haven't even started on a script yet.

Marvel Taps Geneva Robertson-Dworet To Script ‘Captain Marvel’

EXCLUSIVE: Marvel has set Geneva Robertson-Dworet to take over and write the script for Captain Marvel, the Brie Larson-starrer that will be directed by Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck (Mississippi Grind). Meg LeFauve & Nicole Perlman originally were set to write the script, but LeFauve had to leave to direct the Disney Animation pic Gigantic with Nathan Greno

That creates a big opportunity for Robertson-Dworet, whose script credits include the upcoming Tomb Raider pic for MGM that stars Alicia Vikander and Gotham City Sirens, an expansion of the Suicide Squad franchise which David Ayer is looking to direct with Margot Robbie reprising her role as Harley Quinn for Warner Bros.

Robertson-Dworet has made the Black List twice, most recently for Ares, which got set at MGM and has Anna Foerster directing. She is repped by Management 360, WME and HJTH.

Disney will release Captain Marvel on March 8, 2019.

Agent Coulson in the MCU again, that's pretty awesome - even if technically it's pre-Avengers and his 'death'. Now, if Agent May ever finds her way on-screen I think most Agents of SHIELD fans would just be over the moon

FunLover18 · 27-03-2018 1:11pm

Presumably this is what all that de-aging has been building towards. I wonder will Fury have hair.

That's a pretty good recreation of the suit; keeps the colours and shape, kinda reminds me of Captain America's own.

Gbear · 06-09-2018 9:47am

I wonder will we see a similar trend to CA where the first suit is quite colourful and a bit garish and subsequent ones (in Infinity War and beyond) take on a more and more understated, practical look.

Guy:Incognito · 06-09-2018 10:27am

Shouldn't one of marvel or American be promoted to major, to stop any issues with command when they are both working together.

Wouldn't want the fate of the world decided while they're arguing over who's in charge and who's plan to use.

Synopsis for the film

Captain Marvel sidesteps the traditional origin-story template, and when it begins, Carol already has her powers. She’s left her earthly life behind to join an elite Kree military team called Starforce, led by Jude Law’s enigmatic commander. But before long, Carol finds herself back on Earth with new questions about her past. And she’s got a formidable enemy in the form of the Skrulls — the notorious Marvel baddies made all the more dangerous by their shape-shifting abilities. Ben Mendelsohn plays their leader Talos, who spearheads a Skrull invasion of Earth.

brianregan09 · 06-09-2018 7:32pm

Can't wait for this , the pics look great too , Skrulls look okay will have to see in motion to decide

Ok, the scenes are brief, but those shots of a de-aged L Jackson & Clark Gregg are just uncanny (though Coulson does look a little weird, probably just used to seeing the middled-aged version)

Osmosis Jones · 18-09-2018 2:06pm

I'm on board, had a good laugh that they just used a Blockbuster video to establish this is a 90s movie. Pretty sure that was Ronan from GotG in a shot wasn't it?

Also having her punch an old lady in the face right after the "Discover what makes her a hero" cards

Brief_Lives · 18-09-2018 2:14pm

Giggidy....

Varik · 18-09-2018 2:18pm

They used the faux hawk mask

All the stuff shown without it I'd hope it'd be skipped.

SimonTemplar · 18-09-2018 2:57pm

Aside from the Blockbuster opening which I loved, the trailer doesn't really indicate the quality of the film. It could be great or rubbish - it is difficult to judge from that trailer.

Either way, I really looking forward to it.

GavRedKing · 18-09-2018 4:11pm

I'll probably go just to see how the end of A:IW ties in with the what we see here and I imagine the last scene or post credit scene will make reference to Fury contacting her and returning to earth or wherever it is shes hiding.

I reckon that they're going to have her ridiculously over powered here and in Avengers 4 but they've gone well down that path already with Black Widow and Captain America before her so I'll be reluctantly giving them a pass on that.

I don't think "overpowered" is the right term, AFAIK she's always been one of the most powerful Marvel heroes. And if 100% of the Avengers couldn't take out Thanos, and now there are only 50% of the Avengers + Captain Marvel, then she's going to have to make up more than 50% of the remainder.

Or maybe we find out she died in the Thanos snap too and this whole exercise was pointless :pac:

Mr Crispy · 18-09-2018 4:46pm

Decent trailer, without being anything special. Guess they're keeping their powder dry for now, and not wanting to reveal just how powerful she is. Agreed on above though - the de-ageing effect is uncanny.

spacecoyote · 18-09-2018 5:29pm

I'm not really sure on the trailer, I just felt it was quite boring to be honest

youngblood · 18-09-2018 10:10pm

If one was to compare it to another recent female super hero trailer (you know who) it doesn't invoke a tenth of the excitement but it will probably still blow that movie out of the water cos they just know how to make em good here!

I think the complete lack of any humour from the title character just comes across as very out of step for a Marvel movie.

Wonder woman? I'd say 50% of the work in that trailer was the music (another 10% perhaps surprise over a DC film looking OK); WW has a pretty punchy, earworm style theme, whereas the MCU films famously downplay the use of iconic musical numbers.

Apart from the Avengers theme and Wakanda's theme there really isn't much good music in the MCU at all.

But yeah I'm excited for this purely based on the fact it's a new hero, I'm always more interested in that than something like an Iron Man 4, as much as I like the current characters.

Not in a two minute trailer. Unless they were going all out comedy like GOTG, Antman and Ragnarok, I wouldn't expect to see much humour in the trailer. There wasn't any in the other films first trailers from what I can remember (Cap's films, Iron Man 1, etc.)

Don't forget the GotG. Fantastic soundtracks... that also bled into IW a little bit. Thor: Ragnorok also had a fun soundtrack.

As far as theme songs go though, yeah the MCU is largely forgettable. You can recognize as it's on the screen but honestly, I couldn't even hum the Avengers theme right now. Wakanda is about the most memorable theme.

Oh, and on the Captain Marvel trailer. It looks good. Definitely not an "OMG take my money" trailer with a huge action set-piece or quirky humour, but a solid trailer that sets up what the movie is about... which is fine by me.

Sleepy · 19-09-2018 12:08pm

I dunno, I got a distinctly Green Lantern feel from it...

silverharp · 19-09-2018 12:19pm

she doesn't seem to have a lot of personality in the trailer? I counted 2 facial expressions

The real issue I have is its taken 3 Thor Films, 3 Avenger films, the deaths of Loki, Odin and half of Asgard for Thor to finally realise his power on screen.

Thor was one swing of Stormbreaker away from stopping Thanos so the rest of the Avengers were pretty redundant anyway.

Or maybe we find out she died in the Thanos snap too and this whole exercise was pointless :pac:
