The rumours have been swirling for months, and it was finally confirmed at SDCC that Carol Danvers aka Captain Marvel will be played by Academy Award-winning actress Brie Larson.

It's a hell of a win for the Marvel Cinematic Universe (not that it wants for talented actors joining its employ), and though the other popular choice, Katheryn Winnick, may more closely resemble the character, it goes without saying Larson's going to knock this out of the park.

Hopefully she gets a solo movie befitting her talents, especially considering what's at stake when it comes to female-led superhero movies. This needs to be a success.
