10 Actresses Who Could Play Captain Marvel

7. Emily Blunt

Here's another favorite who could easily wind up in the role if both parties can reach an agreement. Add Blunt to the list of up-and-coming actresses whose careers are on the ascent, spearheaded by her portrayal of bad*ss Sgt. Rita Vrataski in the highly-underrated Edge Of Tomorrow. The starlet has proven she has the chops to play Danvers, a decorated Air Force Major, bears enough of a resemblance and is yet another talent who has shown previous interest in working with Marvel. She was the early choice for Black Widow, dropping out due to the dreaded scheduling conflicts, and then was offered the role of Peggy Carter but turned it down. Has she been holding out for a starring spot in the MCU? If so, this is her perfect chance, as Captain Marvel could become an important centerpiece for years to come.
