In Avengers: Endgame, Marvel Cinematic Universe followers bought to see Brie Larson’s Carol Danvers head to her house planet and hang around for a bit with Earth’s Mightiest Heroes… however the actuality within the canon is that she has been off-world9 for fairly a very long time. As depicted in Captain Marvel, she left Earth within the 12 months 1995, and she or he apparently wasn’t in a position to return for fairly some time – as evidenced by her awkward relationship with Teyonah Parris’ Monica Rambeau.
So the place has Captain Marvel been since she left Earth within the Nineties? That was a query that director Nia DaCosta encountered within the growth of the brand new movie The Marvels, and she or he has defined that it was crucial for her to supply followers with some actual solutions.

Her interstellar adventures noticed her go to new planets and encounter new civilizations, and it appears that evidently she felt a duty to make use of her skills and assist them with their issues. Previous proof of this conduct is featured in Avengers: Endgame – particularly the scene when she explains that she has been caring for a number of worlds after The Blip.
Because of Nia DaCosta’s efforts (alongside co-writers Megan McDonnell and Elissa Karasik), The Marvels will take us to a few of the worlds that Captain Marvel has supported, informing us about her previous within the course of… however not misplaced within the combine may even be her coping with certainly one of her largest points: her relationship with Monica. When Monica was a toddler, “Aunt Carol” promised her that she would return and go to, however that turned out to be a lie. The battle was beforehand teased in WandaVision (the place Teyonah Parris made her debut as grownup Monica and have become a superhero herself), however The Marvels will deliver it entrance and heart.
