Captain Marvel was never, particularly someone capable of being fit into a mold. Her personality had stood out from the moment of her conception, her rise as a cosmic superhero only added to that flair. But one of the tragedies of being made extraordinary is to go at it alone.

What exactly this“new phase”with respect to Captain Marvel entails is yet to be seen, although Larson and co-star Iman Vellani did claim that there’s an additional depth and emotional complexity to the former’s character.
