With DC bringing a female led comic book movie to the screen, Marvel had to do something to compete with their primary rivals. In the Phase Three announcement, Marvel confirmed that Carol Danvers is going to be entering the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Captain Marvel.

The Captain Marvel mantel has been behind one of Marvel’s most powerful beings for decades, so her introduction to the MCU could be a game changer, especially in the face of Thanos' inevitable attack on earth. The movie is set for release in 2018, and there's been no announcement on casting decisions yet.
