Marvel Studios is finally starting to unveil Captain Marvel, with a slew of new information about the film being revealed. Academy Award-winning actress Brie Larson spoke about entering the Marvel Cinematic Universe as the most powerful hero yet.
Larson is hyped on her future in the MCU, and it’s especially because the character embraces many of the qualities she loves in the roles she’s had before. Speaking to EW as part of their Captain Marvel coverage, she shared her thoughts on what makes her movie unique. Larson is very impressed with the dramatic elements the film is factoring in most of all. There will be the standard humor and action, but it’s Captain Marvel‘s ability to show all of these aspects that makes her most excited.
“That is something that is really exciting to me about this film: We did not cut corners on that stuff,” Larson says. “Like, when it’s funny, it is funny, but also when there’s deep emotional things happening, it’s real. So I was able to bring some of those same things that I’ve brought to full dramatic roles into this, which I’m really proud of because I think it will really set this film apart.”
That sense of duality gives this movie something that some other Marvel movies have lacked, introspection. That doesn’t mean this movie is going to be a downer, but it means they didn’t do anything by halves including the emotional bits, which Larson appreciated.
Captain Marvel premieres March 5, 2019.
