Brie Larson Teases Return as Captain Marvel in ‘Avengers: Doomsday’ Ahead of Thursday Reveal
Brie Larson is sparking excitement across the Marvel fandom after hinting at her return as Carol Danvers, a.k.a. Captain Marvel, in the upcoming MCU film Avengers: Doomsday.
In a social media post shared earlier today, Larson wrote:
"Thank you for being part of this journey so far. Now it's time for a new chapter – more on that Thursday."
The post, accompanied by a photo of Larson looking out toward a glowing horizon, has ignited speculation that the Oscar-winning actress is gearing up to reprise her role in Marvel Studios' next major ensemble film.
Although no official confirmation has been made by Marvel, industry insiders have long reported that Avengers: Doomsday is in active development and will feature both returning and new heroes as they face one of the most formidable villains yet: Doctor Doom.
Larson’s Captain Marvel has been a pivotal figure in the MCU since her debut in Captain Marvel (2019), later appearing in Avengers: Endgame and most recently in The Marvels (2023). Despite mixed critical reception for The Marvels, Larson’s performance and the character’s cosmic significance have kept fans eager for her continued involvement.
With her cryptic message hinting at a new chapter, many are interpreting this as a clear signal of her reentry into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The exact nature of her role and how Captain Marvel will fit into the narrative of Avengers: Doomsday remain under wraps—but the mystery may not last long.
A full announcement is expected this Thursday, potentially during Disney’s investor call or Marvel Studios’ upcoming panel event.
Conclusion:
Brie Larson’s tease has set off a wave of excitement among Marvel fans, and all eyes are now on Thursday’s reveal. If confirmed, her return as Captain Marvel would mark a significant step forward for Avengers: Doomsday and the next era of the MCU’s cosmic saga. Stay tuned for updates as this story develops.
