Captain Marvel: 10 Reasons To Be Excited

10. New Leadership

This may only be speculation at this point, but with many heads on the metaphorical chopping block for Infinity War, having a powerful, authoritative Captain who's been seeing cosmic action for a few decades gives fans hope that, in the event of the deaths of major Avengers, there'll still be a super-powerful protector to look up to after Infinity War.

Given that her film is set in the nineties and has put her in an apparent in-universe hiatus every since, fans expect her to come back and play a big part in Avengers 4, establishing her as an even bigger figure in the MCU than she's already gearing up to be.

A small comfort in the face of death, especially that of favourite characters, but fans may be trading one captain for another over the course of the next year, and in the very least, the cosmic power irradiated air force pilot will be a more than worthy leader to replace the one the MCU may lose. After falling in love with her in her solo film, fans will surely welcome her in a leadership role in Avengers 4. As soon as they get there, of course.
