Are you excited about the new installment in Marvel Cinematic Universe that is Captain Marvel? If you are not, then a few photos just might do the trick and get you hyped. Recently we got a chance to have a first look of Brie Larson in her role of Captain Marvel aka Carol Danvers.

Larson graced the cover of Entertainment Weekly in the superhero’s iconic costume, while the magazine also provided us with several other photographs showing the talented actress in action as one of the galaxy’s strongest heroes. You can check them out below.

We already had the chance to see Brie Larson as Carol Danvers at the end of Avengers: Infinity War. Nick Fury pages Danvers in the last scene, and there is a belief that she will join Avengers in the sequel and help them beat Thanos in the final battle. But before that, we will get to learn her story as Captain Marvel solo movie hits the theaters on March 8, 2019.

In the cover story for EW, Larson decided to give us a bit of an insight into her character to keep us hyped up until March.

“She can’t help but be herself,” Larson told EW. “She can be aggressive, and she can have a temper, and she can be a little invasive and in your face. She’s also quick to jump to things, which makes her amazing in battle because she’s the first one out there and doesn’t always wait for orders. But the [not] waiting for orders is, to some, a character flaw.”

This first female-led Marvel’s movie will also be directed by the first female director in the MCU, Anna Boden. According to Boden, the character of Carol Danvers’ superhero persona is not perfect, and her uniqueness lies in her humanity.

“This is not a superhero who’s perfect or otherworldly or has some godlike connection,” said Boden while talking about Captain Marvel. “But what makes her special is just how human she is. She’s funny, but doesn’t always tell good jokes. And she can be headstrong and reckless and doesn’t always make the perfect decisions for herself. But at her core, she has so much heart and so much humanity — and all of its messiness.”

Besides Larsen, Captain Marvel also features other exciting cast members including Annette Bening, Jude Law, Gemma Chan, Colin Ford, Mckenna Grace, Robert Kazinsky, Lashana Lynch, Ben Mendelsohn, Chuku Modu.
