At Comic-Con, we learned that Captain Marvel will be set in the 90s and co-star Samuel L. Jackson's Nick Fury as Carol Danvers goes to war with the Skrulls. The movie sounds incredible and while it's still a couple of years away, Brie Larson didn't shy away from talking about the upcoming release with ET.

She was, however, very careful with what she had to say! "I may be getting ready, I may not be getting ready! Anything I say I feel is hyper analyzed," the actress said about her future as the character as she seemingly made sure to avoid confirming whether or not the character will appear in Avengers 4


"I mean, I feel pressure in that it's a character that people love and are inspired by and I see that, and so I want to do right by that," Larson continued. "And I want people to feel like their character is honored." However, one thing the actress isn't sweating about is the recent success of Wonder Woman and the possibility that the Marvel Studios release will be compared to the DC Comics adaptation.

"Why is there pressure?" she asked the site. "I don't understand why there's pressure put on women as if it's the most shocking concept ever that a woman can open a movie -- it's like, it's kind of a tired concept. We've proven it for a long time, so I don't put pressure on in that way at all." That's fair!

Samuel didn't have quite as much to say, but when he was asked about what he's most looking forward to about Captain Marvel, the Avengers: Infinity War star replied: "Hanging out with Brie. Brie's like, awesome. Brie's my girl." What are you guys most excited about seeing from the Marvel movie?

@Kevwebsz - well I always assumed she was 30-40 in the comics to begin with. plus with kree dna her aging isn't much of a factor so she can look younger.
