Brie Larson IS Captain Marvel
The secret's out...
One of the worst kept secrets in all of Hollywood is now out in the wild: Brie Larson - the hottest tipped actor for the role - has been confirmed as Marvel's Captain Marvel.
After months of rumours, Marvel used their Comic Con panel to reveal that the Oscar winner will be playing the character with her solo outing coming in a couple of years. The timing of the announcement suggests we'll be seeing her in the MCU earlier than that however, with a walk-on very possible.
At the very least, we can probably assume she'll be in the first part of the Infinity War double-header. I would doubt she'd be in costume at that point - given that Kevin Feige has previously said she won't arrive fully formed anywhere before her solo outing.
Marvel also confirmed at the same time that they have a new logo...
