Kevin Feige breath   at whereCaptain Marvelhas been during all the events that have transpired so far in the Marvel Cinematic Universe . It has been10 class since Marvel Studioskicked off their interconnected franchise , which   is promptly closing in on 20 films under its banner - and a few more await on the docket . During all of this time , the   franchise has not addressed that obviously there is another brawny superhero   who could have help   with all the various predicaments that our characters have   been in throughout   the last decade : Captain Marvel .

The role , which will seeBrie Larsontake flying as the newest   superhero in the monolithic MCU , may have not yet consider the luminousness of day . Announced only   in 2014 and schedule to officially plunge via her standalone film in 2019 , the character has existed at least   since the ' 90s , which was confirmed at San Diego Comic - Con to be the movie ’s setting . So that obviously begs the inquiry , where was she during all this fourth dimension ? Feige may have an answer .

“ The key is … ‘out there,'”the Marvel exec coyly toldi09when asked the motion while doing the promotional round for MCU ’s latest project , Thor : Ragnarok . Feige did not offer any more detail about his solvent and basically just let that one musical phrase be his all - encompassing response , which would expectedly prompt fans to   speculate and come up with their most plausible , and sometimes most outlandish , theory .

Feige ’s answer may be shortsighted but it packs a lot of meaning . It can mean a 10000 of thing . We know that the main baddie for the picture is the   extraterrestrial shapeshifters , Skrulls , which already connects her to the cosmic world . Additionally , while we ’re not yet certain how her rootage film will pan out devote that   film ’s co - writer , Nicole Perlman , divulge that herorigin history will not be a lineal adaptation ,   Feige previously share that although the character is from Earth , her adventures will be chiefly place in out space . It is possible that in parliamentary law to redeem her homeworld during theKree - Skrull warfare , she sacrificed herself and volitionally got trapped in the cosmos or maybe she just chose to be off - ground to   fight off any other looming threat before it even arrive on the satellite .

How she gets pulled back into the fold also remain a closed book ( it might have something to do with Thanos wreak havoc in the whole universe of discourse ) , butLarson was spot in Atlanta , Georgia of late with Chris Evans where the still untitledAvengers 4is presently shooting , prompting fans to speculate that whileshe may not beinAvengers : Infinity War , she will finally join the   squad in the next ensemble flick . Timeline - wise , it also make sense , asCaptain Marvelwill have already been release by the time MCU ’s Phase 3 capper rolls out .

On top of featuring the Skrulls and being gear up in the ' 90s , fans can also expect astill two - eyed Nick Furyappearing inCaptain Marvel , with many expect to finally know how he ended up with the eyepatch . Being a period part , the picture also opens up opportunity for retiring MCU characters to return to the dealership , such as   Hayley Atwell’sPeggy Carter , who give-up the ghost of old age inCaptain America : Civil War .
