Captain Marvel Captain Marvel General Discussion and Speculation - Part 3

She'll no doubt be in Avengers Four at least.

Here's a Marvel Character that may show up that we haven't even mentioned could be in this movie:

He would be in his late 20's early 30's when the film starts.

I wanna see him in the film. Even if for only a cameo. Couldn't they de-age him with whatever they are using in recent films? I don't wanna see him re-cast.

How ripped is Brie gonna have to get for this role?

This might be arguably the biggest film ever for a female lead (at least physically speaking)

 

[Abudefduf]

Does anyone remember the CM comic series Brie was reading on a couch that was posted awhile back?

It was Higher, Further, Faster, More. Why?

How ripped is Brie gonna have to get for this role?

Hopefully as much as Alicia Vikander did for Tomb Raider.

 

[Iceman]

Yes surely.

Depends if she's covered up the whole time.

Not sure if it's been posted here, but it's confirmed. Carol will not be in Infinity War. Welp. Why is life so hard?

I'm pretty sure they already said that was the case quite a while ago. Or at least heavily implied it.

A de aged CGI Rhodey would make sense especially with this taking place in the 90s

 

[InCali]

It was Higher, Further, Faster, More. Why?

I was wondering because of the 90's setting of the movie and wondered if it would maybe help figure out where they might lean with the character.

Didn't Carol have a relationship with him..? If he's in the movie, they could have a relationship in the beginning, then she comes back to the modern world and sees how old he's become...

 

[flickchick85]

Yeah, I'd be ok with her having dated young Rhodey.

 

[Dyson]

If he survives Infinity War.

 

[InCali]

If he survives Infinity War.

I don't think they'll kill him and think he'll be available for A4. During A4, I think all bets are off (except BP, Spidey, CM, AM, DS, and GotG). Nebula could die I think.

"Dude. You got, like, ANCIENT. I was, like, totally in suspended animation so I'm, like, STILL young and all that."

Setting Captain Marvel in the '90s hints at how much she matters

But Marvel also announced that the movie will see Captain Marvel facing off against the Skrulls, a pairing that likely points to Marvel’s real plans for the film. The Skrulls are a race of shapeshifters that, in the comics, have invaded and very nearly taken over Earth. They’re the kind of threat that, at the height of their powers, requires the Avengers working with other teams like the X-Men to stop, and the fact that Danvers may be fighting them off alone is a way of establishing just how powerful the character is.

Heh, that would be cool... moderately cool. Just as long as their relationship stays dead once they meet again in the modern timeline.

But this would give Hollywood the perfect excuse to pair a woman with a man twice her age.

 

[Dr. Evil]

Rhodey would be 26 in 1990, so he would be perfect. Don Cheadle looks his age, so he would have to de-age.

 

[flickchick85]

Considering we've never heard Rhodey mention the love of his life that disappeared in space or whatever, I think the best route to go in would be if they had just casually dated back in the 90's and had the rapport of friendly exes when she disappeared. That way they have a bit of history, but not enough for there to be risk of them wanting to "rekindle" everything now with the giant age gap.

I'm really glad the Skrulls are involved. For some reason I had thought that Fox had rights to them but maybe that is just SuperSkrull.

wait when did he mention this? in the comics?

No, reread my post - I said he's NEVER mentioned this. Which is why I don't think they should have been some kind of grand romance if they had a thing in the 90's. Just make it something that happened and was casual, and then she disappeared.

Why would he talk about past loves? Rhodey has always been a supporting character and hasnt had much backstory given. I dont see where a past love would have been relevant enough to be brought up in. Like we didnt know Hawkeye had a wife and kids until we did. If they go there with Rhodey, it'll be the same thing. I dont want them to have been involved but he never mentioning Carol before doesnt mean anything in terms of a relationship not havent been a thing

If she was the love of his life who mysteriously disappeared, it would be more than just some "past love," it would be something impossible to forget and simply move on from. There would be a part of him that would forever need to find her and find out what happened to her, and it would surely have come up in some conversation with his best friend when talking about Pepper/the love of HIS life. That's like a HUGE trauma. If they were just casual though, and possibly weren't even dating at the time, then I'd see it the way you do. And that's fine. And as I said, I'd prefer it anyway, so they wouldn't be trying to rekindle it in present day. I just don't think it should be presented as some grand romance (ala Peggy/Steve) is all.

 

[RockSP]

Carol and Rhodey shouldn't know each other at all, IMO. The Air Force isn't so small that everybody knows everybody else lol. I'm assuming she will interact with Fury in the movie so that's enough of a connection to established mcu characters. I mean if they do some kind of Rhodey cameo...like they both happen to be present at some military function but don't come into contact with each other...that would work. But they don't need to shrink the world so much.

 

[Best]

I remember it briefly being brought up, about Fury acting like in The Avengers that the events of Thor was earths "first contact", so to speak.

I do wonder if the writers/Feige remember that line or if it doesn't matter at all. If it does matter, then I presume Fury's interaction with Skrulls will be very limited, or if so it'll be in human form.

thats good motivation for why she wouldnt have been brought up. If losing her hurt him so bad, he may have closed off and not want to bring that up with anyone bc it triggers emotions he had put to rest. With that said, again he was never a lead character and I dont see where this would have been relevant. He's not on Captain America's level where we got deep insight into his past and what makes him the man he is today. In context with how he was utilized in the IM films and CW, it would have been out of place. Most people by his age had a great love; just bc you dont hear about them, doesnt mean they didnt exist.

We'll just have to agree to disagree. It's such a random hypothetical scenario I don't feel like it's worth getting into a debate over, lol. Suffice it to say, I hope it doesn't happen.
