It ’s one affair to aid out in the awful of setting , it ’s another towield Mjolnir . Is Captain Marvel the type of worthy hero Thor has proven to be ? And will she be the game changer the MCU needs inAvengers 4and beyond ?
Is Captain Marvel Worthy To Wield Mjolnir?
Thor ’s wizardly hammer was destroyed by Hela inThor : Ragnarok , but that does n’t think of " worthiness " as a trait is n’t still important . That ’s doubly true as Mjolnir has in reality been find out in set photos forAvengers 4 ; the plot of the next film is a closely guarded closed book , but with flashbacks / prison term change of location to the Battle of New York and mysteriousunused set photos fromInfinity War , the God of Thunder seems potential to reunify with his dear artillery in some form . So how does it apply to the new Avenger ?
Mjolnir and the worthiness to handle it have been a source of much debate ( and a drunken competition ) within the Avengers for class . InAvengers Age of Ultron , Captain America was able to nudge Thor ’s hammer ever - so - slightly , while Vision had no issue whatsoever wielding Mjolnir , which denote the purity of the mechanical man . Tony Stark has pepper Thor with many questions about lifting the hammer that Thor ca n’t answer , but in the simplest sense Mjolnir is a saturated barometer of gallantry .
Crucially , strong-arm long suit alone does n’t stir Mjolnir , so despite Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige ’s coquette thatCaptain Marvel ’s power levelswill be"off the charts"and that she will be"by far the strong persona we ’ve ever had",that need n’t mean she can really purloin Thor ’s fabled weapon . This leave a muckle opened for how Captain Marvel is characterize in her own movie , although if Vision is worthy to swing over Mjolnir with ease , why woudn’t Captain Marvel be able-bodied to ?

Even if Mjolnir does n’t return , the question remains in some form : what about Stormbreaker ? While there ’s been no case law established yet that a hero must be worthy to lift Thor ’s fresh ax ( Groot lifted it as he made his own branch its hold ) , if such an captivation were place upon the axe , betting odds are Captain Marvel has both the physical might and the necessary strength of fiber to wave it ( andaim for the head ) .

Ultimately , Captain Marvel ’s worthiness will be delineate by what kind of hero will she be . grant toAvengers 4screenwriter Christopher Marcus , Carol Danvers will be"the closest to Captain America … a rare kind of character which is sort of a person who ’s proper and know they ’re right and does n’t really want to hear it when you distinguish them they ’re wrong . “As we hump , despite his inherent goodness , Steve Rogers could n’t lift Mjolnir ( yet ) , so perhaps there is more to this doubt . Avengers 4will be the true test of how suitable Captain Marvel will be to direct the MCU , regardless of whether or not Carol can heft the enchanted pounding .
