Brie Larson in Captain Marvel

Feb 04, 2019 Brie Larson By Christopher Roberts

Captain Marvel, which stars Oscar winning actress Brie Larson (Room, Kong: Skull Island) as the title character (aka Carol Danvers), is the first Marvel movie to be headlined by a female superhero. A new trailer for the Marvel film was aired last night during the Super Bowl and you can watch it below.

The film is due out March 8, 2019 via Disney. The first trailer was shared back in September, with a second trailer following in December.

Directing team Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck (Half Nelson, Mississippi Grind) co-wrote and directed Captain Marvel. The film takes place in the 1990s (hence Captain Marvel crashing into a Blockbuster Video in the opening of the first trailer) and features Samuel L. Jackson playing a younger version of his Nick Fury character, with Clark Gregg also playing a younger version of his Phil Coulson character (as currently seen on Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.LD. TV show), both via de-aging special effects. The cast also includes Ben Mendelsohn, Djimon Hounsou, Lee Pace, Gemma Chan, Jude Law, Annette Benning, and others.
