With a trailer expected soon for its March 8th, 2019 release, Entertainment Weekly has a new cover piece for the Captain Marvel film that includes lots of new material. With the tweet link below, there’s a series of ten new images that provides a look at the suited up Carol Danvers as well as our first look at the Skrulls in full make-up form and other elements. With this movie basically being a “drop-in” movie where it’s not a proper origin tale, though we expect pieces of it to appear, there’s a lot of anticipation of being able to hit a lot of big moments quick and set up for the next Avengers film as well.
Captain Marvel will see Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck tackling this project as co-directors, which is being written by Inside Out co-writer Meg LaFauve with Guardians of the Galaxy writer Nicole Perlman. The cast Brie Larson as Carol Danvers/Captain Marvel and Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury with Jude Law, Gemma Chan, and Ben Mendelsohn.
Boden and Fleck have worked together on multiple projects over the years, including the 2015 film Mississipi Grind, and have dabbled in both film and TV with work recently on The Affair and Billions. That blend of mediums is something that Marvel Studios has been attracted to in their talent as there are things that you can bring across from both to make for an engaging film, especially when it comes to character work.
Property Concept: It will center on Danvers, an Air Force pilot who debuted in the comics in 1968 as a human companion to the original Captain Marvel (Mar-Vell). When her DNA was fused with that of an alien during an accident, the resulting alteration imbued her with the superpowers of strength, energy projection and flight.
