Will Captain Marvel films become the focal point of the MCU? Or is it the character's role in the conflict between the Kree and the Skrull that will prove central to where the Marvel Cinematic Universe heads after Avengers: Endgame?
A quote from Kevin Feige in the Captain Marvel: The Official Movie Special recalls the moment Brie Larson was revealed at Comic-Con 2016 and how her position at the center of the on-stage group photo was indicative of things to come.
“When we found out that Brie Larson might be interested in joining our world, we had a number of meetings. She was a huge fan of the character in the comics. One of the highlights of my career at Marvel was introducing her at Comic-Con and having her come out on stage and stand there with literally almost everybody else from our movies. There she was at the forefront, and it was a great foreshadowing – not just for how audiences are going to embrace Brie as this character, but also for how Captain Marvel is about to take the lead and be at the forefront of the entire Cinematic Universe.”
Feige has been quick to dismiss any notion that the depiction of the Skrulls in Captain Marvel prevents the MCU from ever doing their own version of Secret Invasion. Do you think all the secrecy around Endgame is due to the fact that one of the Avengers will be revealed as Skrull by the time the credits roll?
