WithAvengers 4continuing production in Atlanta this week, a new report confirms the inclusion of a character most expected to see in this movie, Brie Larson’sCaptain Marvel. Ever sinceAvengers 4 started shootingin Atlanta last month, a few set photos have leaked from the set, and while we don’t have any actual images of Brie Larson on the set, now that it has been revealed she’s part of the production, it’s possible we may get our first glimpse at the actress in costume later this week.
Atlanta Filming Twitter reports that both Brie Larson and Chris Evans were spotted in town, presumably on set, although there are no photos of either actor quite yet. You may recall there was a report from July that revealedCaptain Marvelwill not appear inAvengers: Infinity War, which came just after production wrapped on that movie. That information came directly from director Joe Russo who stated flat-out in a Comic-Con interview that she won’t be inAvengers 3, but he didn’t say anything about the still-untitledAvengers 4. Besides, it makes more sense for her to show up in this final Marvel Phase 3 movie anyway.
Brie Larson’sCaptain Marvelmovie is one of two Marvel movies that will arrive betweenInfinity WarandAvengers 4.Ant-Man and the Waspwill debut in theaters June 05, 2025, just a few months afterAvengers: Infinity War, withCaptain Marvelarriving on June 07, 2025, just a few months beforeAvengers 4. Marvel announced Brie Larson’s casting by bringing the actress out for a surprise appearance at their Marvel Comic-Con 2016 panel, with many fans speculating that her casting was revealed so early so she could be a part ofAvengers 3and/orAvengers 4. It seems that theory turned out to be true, well, half-true anyway.
What’s ironic is, while Brie Larson is filming thisAvengers sequelfirst, her ownCaptain Marvelmovie will still arrive in theaters beforeAvengers 4, the title of which will still remain a mystery, since it is said to be a spoiler for the events ofAvengers: Infinity War. Besides, it makes sense that she’ll get her own origin movie first before joiningThe Avengers, since Kevin Feige already confirmed that they were once considering puttingCaptain Marvelas part of the new Avengers team that assembled at the end ofAvengers: Age of Ultron, but he stated that he wanted to give her a proper introduction into the MCU, which will be handled through this upcomingCaptain Marvelmovie, which will be set in the 1990s and follow the Kree-Skrull war.
It will be interesting if Brie Larson shows up in any set photos, since it will be our first full look at the character, although it will be for a movie that takes place after her own stand-alone movie, and therefore could contain some spoilers if we do get to see any images from the set. TheCaptain Marvelmovie will also bring back Nick Fury, showing a de-aged version of the character in the 1990s, with the character to have both working eyes for the first time in MCU history. There have also been reports thatNick Fury returns in Avengers 4, despite earlier reports to the contrary, which could make sense with the addition ofCaptain Marvelin this movie. Take a look at the Atlanta Filming tweets below, and stay tuned for more onAvengers 4as production continues.
