Rumored CAPTAIN MARVEL Details Suggest An Appearance From Mar-Vell, Original Ms. Marvel Costume & More
We learned some surprising new details about Captain Marvel at SDCC, and this latest report suggests we might also be getting an appearance from Mar-Vell, among other things. Find out more after the jump.
We definitely found out a few surprising things about the Captain Marvel movie at SDCC recently, and now The MCU Exchange have followed-up with a report of their own which is sure to please comic book fans... provided it turns out to be on the level, that is.
According to their sources, Kree hero Mar-Vell (the original Captain Marvel) will indeed be making an appearance. Though they're not sure if his earth-bound alter ego Dr. Walter Lawson will feature, they do expect him to be involved in the Psyche-Magnitron accident which gives Brie Larson's Carol Danvers her powers.
This accident is responsible for altering Danvers' genetic structure to transform her into a half-Kree superhuman, and apparently this will will be used to explain why the character won't appear to have aged between the events of her solo movie - which is set in the '90s - and her reintroduction in the still untitled Avengers 4.
In addition, the earliest drafts of the script reportedly include references to Carol's early days as Ms. Marvel, and it sounds like we can expect to see some version of that costume onscreen.
We'll have to take this with the usual pinch of salt for now, but it does seem to gel with what we learned about the film a couple of weeks ago.
