Captain Marvel Trailer Breakdown: 15 Things You Need To See

1. THAT Final Shot

Before set photos showing Brie Larson in the Captain Marvel outfit even released, Marvel Studios' figures were prophesying that Carol Danvers was the most powerful character the MCU had ever seen. Those familiar with the hero's source material were unsurprised, but those unconvinced of these predictions should be firm believers in the Captain's power now, with that final shot of the trailer showcasing Carol channeling all her cosmic energy into one gigantic blast.

It's moments like these that make it easy to understand why Thanos should be worried about the Captain's arrival, and why - come Avengers 4 - Carol could tip the balance in the Avengers' favour.

It's a great shot, and although the trailer doesn't disclose who she's directing all this energy at, it's the first real indicator of the Captain's powers, and a real statement of intent from Marvel that Carol can lead the MCU once formal introductions are made come March.
