CAPTAIN MARVEL's Running Time May Have Been Revealed
With a new look at Captain Marvel slated to debut during the College Football National Championship on ESPN this Monday, details about the movie's running time have seemingly been revealed. Take a look!
Captain Marvel is set to be released in March and that obviously makes it the first big superhero movie to reach theaters in 2019. Now, just days before another look at the latest chapter of the Marvel Cinematic Universe lands, we may finally know what the movie's running time is going to be.
With tickets expected to go on sale next week (to coincide with the release of that extended TV spot which will air on ESPN), a number of chains have updated their websites with AMC, Harkins, and Regal all listing Captain Marvel as running between two hours, eight minutes and two hours, ten minutes. That sounds about right for an origin story and should just about do the Kree/Skrull War justice.
Of course, there's speculation that this 90s set adventure will simply serve as an opening salvo of sorts, with Avengers: Endgame actually setting the stage for the Skrulls to start invading a vulnerable Earth, possibly to set up "Secret Invasion" during Phase 4.
We'll have to wait and see whether or not that becomes a reality but excitement is clearly starting to build for Captain Marvel and Marvel Studios may very well have a Black Panther level hit on its hands should everything go to plan when Carol Danvers makes her big screen debut.
