Captain Marvel will usher in a new era of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and it sounds like that will bring about an interesting tone.
Speaking to reporters during a visit to the film’s set, producer Jonathan Schwartz spoke about Captain Marvel‘s place in the MCU, and how the project will strike a blend between some of the franchise’s more serious and light-hearted ventures.
“It’s kind of somewhere in between. You know, Carol in the comics is a very funny character in her own way. In a way that doesn’t feel like Doctor Strange, in a way that doesn’t feel like Iron Man, like Robert Downey Jr., that gets to be her unique voice, and that’s the voice that we tried to get across. Which isn’t joke a minute, Rocket Racoon Guardians of the Galaxy, which is super funny, and isn’t super grounded, kinda heavy, as some of our other movies have been. I think it inhabits a place a lot like Doctor Strange, that takes the movie and the stakes of the movie pretty seriously, but allows the characters to have fun within it,” Schwartz said.
