MCU: 10 Characters Who Will Definitely Survive Phase 3

7. Captain Marvel

We haven't even met Brie Larson's Carol Danvers yet, although she is one of the most-anticipated new arrivals in the MCU. While there were initial discussions over including the character in Age of Ultron, she'll instead be making her debut in Infinity War next year, before her solo outing arrives in 2019 - marking Marvel's first female-led solo movie.

Why She'll Survive

By the time Captain Marvel is released, it'll have taken over 20 MCU films to get a female-led solo outing. That's a hell of a long wait, so it's unthinkable Marvel wouldn't be looking to build on that movie straightaway.

Larson is one of the best actresses in Hollywood right now, so they should be doing all they can to make the most of having her on-board. Captain Marvel should form a key part of whatever sort of superteam comes after Avengers 4, whilst also getting further solo outings too (again, a trilogy seems very possible).
