THE MARVELS Rumored To Have "Musical Elements"- Will Brie Larson's Carol Danvers Belt Out A Tune?

A new rumor doing the rounds online is claiming that Marvel Studios' upcoming Captain Marvel sequel will have "musical elements," and may include at least one sequence with Carol Danvers singing...

The Marvels: The Musical? Not quite, but we might be in store for at least one song and dance number in the upcoming Marvel Studios sequel!

Several reliable (or semi-reliable, at least) internet scoopers have weighed in on a rumor that's been doing the rounds online, and all seem to agree that Captain Marvel 2 will indeed feature some "musical elements." We don't have many details, but from what we can gather, Carol Danvers (and possibly the other heroes) will visit a planet where the population can only "communicate through song."

Marvel Studios has included a few musical sequences in earlier projects (Eternals, Hawkeye and Ms. Marvel, for example), but a character or characters belting out a full song/dance number would be a first. It may seem like an odd creative choice, but we have seen the studio take more risks of late (to varying degrees of success), and we know Larson can carry a tune!

The Academy Award-winner actually began her career as a pop singer, releasing the 2009 single “She Said.” Larson was later given the opportunity to showcase her talent in Edgar Wright's Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World when she performed as Envy Adams.

As with every other rumor, best not to put too much stock in this until we learn more.

Plot details for the The Marvels are still under wraps, but we know Larson will be be joined by Iman Vellani as Kamala Khan, and Teyonah Parris as Monica Rambeau. British actress Zawe Ashton (Fresh Meat, Velvet Buzzsaw) is on board as the main villain, who is rumored to be a gender-swapped take on Kree warrior Ael-Dan. In addition, Samuel L. Jackson has confirmed that he will appear as Nick Fury.

Nia DaCosta, who also helmed the Ms. Marvel season finale's post-credit scene, will direct from a script by WandaVision writer Megan McDonnell. The sequel is set to fly into theaters next year.

I'm a big fan of her rendition of Black Sheep in Scott Pilgrim, so why not? The musical moment in Ms. Marvel was a lot of fun and if it's got that same excitement and energy, I'd be happy to see Brie bring more bops to the big screen.

Yes, because that's what people were complaining about with captain marvel. Not enough musical numbers.🙄

@Origame - no, but many whined that she wasn't showing enough personality.

This would certainly rectify that.

@thewanderer - yes, because you can't sing without a personality 🙄

@Origame - lol I think you mean "you can't have personality without singing".

@Origame - This is on par with "no one asked for this." Films aren't made solely on what people are asking for.

Origame - 7/20/2022, 9:27 AM
@thewanderer - ...what? Are you seriously under the impression that singing just gives you a personality? And that you can't have one without singing?🤣

Origame - 7/20/2022, 9:30 AM
@Variant - my point is the SEQUEL should focus first on the problems of the original. Nowhere here did I even hint that adding musical numbers was a bad thing.

@Origame - umm no, I was merely pointing out that I think you the sarcastic comment you said, you said wrong.

@thewanderer - ...I really don't see how it doesn't.

@Origame - It could be a response to people saying the most personality she had in her movie was in the karaoke flashback scene.

Which...I don't disagree with.

@SheepishOne - I think it'd be hilarious if that's their motivation. Maybe the next Thor movie will be done in the style of stomp because of Thor throwing his coffee mug in the first movie.

@Origame - And what makes you think the SEQUEL won't focus first on the problems of the original? That's a bit assumptive don't you think? This article talks about ONE sequence seemingly somewhere in the middle of the movie. You seem to be drawing irrational conclusions in order to assert more negativity yet again.

Also, I'm curious, what problems of the first film would you like to see addressed? I'm sure Skrulls undercover on Earth will be one. But then again, events from any film / show can be addressed in any other film / show as the MCU is one big storytelling machine rather than a conglomerate of individual character titles.

@Variant - considering we're first learning about all the extra characters thrown in and musical numbers...

@Origame - Still doesn't add up. Seems like you're just complaining to complain again. If I'm being honest. I thought at some point I'd see you post something worth having a real discussion about. But you never seem to like anything. Has anyone else told you this? I mean, even for you it's gotta get old after a while. Surely at some point you make self improvement adjustments based on community response.

@Variant - ...what doesn't add up? And apparently wanting good characters and story is just complaining for the sake of complaining. And you say nothing I'm posting is worth having a discussion about, yet here you are. And you clearly need to get out of just mcu posts. It's not my fault phase 4 is a train wreck. Besides, I did make adjustments. I stopped watching these films after people here kept saying I complain yet will go see it anyway. But let me guess, you're gonna say I need to give them a shot. There's no winning with you stubborn mcu fanboys.

@Origame - I'm not even necessarily a huge MCU fan boy. I'm more of a casual fan of all CBMs. But Marvel Studios' overall delivery is net positive. Calling Phase 4 a train wreck is super exaggerated. I didn't like the amount of humor in Thor 4, for example. But I still enjoyed the film for the things I DID like about it. And that's my point. You seem to be so hyper focused on the things that didn't work for you that you look past the parts of a film that are fun and enjoyable.

And what I meant about a conversation is a decent one. Not just arguing with people. Maybe that's what you like to get out of this. But for me I think it's nice to have friendly debates instead of being prodded with dramatic hot takes.

I mean, wanting good story is great. But to say these aren't good stories is just your opinion and not based in fact. So ultimately you're saying you want things YOUR way. Because for the majority of fans, these are great stories with the occasional misstep. They all review relatively well and perform excellent in the box office. Eternals is the only exception and although I admit it was a let down and didn't meet my expectations no way did it deserve a 47%. Between 60%-70% is appropriate. The villain situation was horrendous but the character exposé was intriguing and the visuals were some of the best in the MCU. (More so with the celestials and fighting effects...Kro not so much.)

So back to the point. If you're actually a fan of the MCU you'd be able to ALSO have some positives to contribute. Not just complaints. Like films I don't like...I don't feel entitled for them to be made to my standard. I just don't follow things I don't like. I'd love for DC to have a great cinematic universe. But it's so bad. I would've loved to have good X-Men films but Fox royally jacked those up. And don't get me started on Sony... So instead of going into those articles and bad mouthing them while others are trying to enjoy them, I stay out and let them have at it.

Does that make sense at all?

@Variant - 1) no, you clearly are one. Otherwise you wouldn't care this much about someone speaking negative so much. Like seriously, you're b!thing to me on two threads. And no, they don't. Only fanboys like you view this phase as a net positive. Either people find this phase to be a disappointment or they're abandoning the mcu in droves. Escape your echo chamber.

2) no, you want me to shut up unless it's praise. You want an echo chamber. And to prove it, have you ever did this to someone here who was only positive about the mcu? I really don't see how that's any less of a problem than someone only being critical to it.

3) rotten tomatoes has lost all credibility after deleting reviews from captain marvel then removing the negative reviews from audiences. And again, people are just no longer bothering with this franchise. But you're right. I am speaking for what I want. I can't speak for other people, just like you can't either. But are you seriously telling me black widow being fine with her sister killing a whole prison after she fought for superhero accountability is good storytelling? Or having someone be considered a hero after deciding to stop enslaving a whole town? Or having loki create a nexus event when it was a plot point that you can't create a nexus event in an apocalypse? I can keep going.

4) no, that's a fanboy. A fan is willing to criticize them. And at this point they just keep messing up and showing no willingness to acknowledge the criticisms or anything. And I would take fox over disney at this point. Nothing they made was as bad as kenobi.

I would think the musical elements are more like how James Gunn uses music to help convey the story they are telling. As long as they don’t play the No Doubt song I’m just a girl again I’m ok with that.

I don't know what to think about The Marvels. Captain Marvel was not the most exciting film but I put that down to the plot. I felt that Carol/Brie were really great and I wanted that character to be let loose in the sequel and have a chance to shine in a better context.

With the direction it's going that is still possible, but I hope that the Luke warm reception to the first one won't lead them to change Carol's personality too much in the second.

I’ll wait for the trailer to make my prediction but my gut is telling me that this movie is going to stink.
