Although Evangeline Lilly's hope van Dyne shared the same billing as Paul Rudd's Scott Lang this behind summer in Ant-Man and the Wasp, adjacent year's Captain Marvel will mark the Marvel Cinematic Universe's first solo superheroine-led movie. As the penultimate chapter of the Phase 3 film slate, Captain Marvel will viewpoint the clock put up to to the 1990s to take action Carol Danvers serving upon the Starforce military team and protecting Earth as it gets caught in the middle of the charge in the midst of the Kree and Skrulls. As for why it took so long for Marvel Studios to pardon its first female-led movie, the studio's president, Kevin Feige, gave the behind explanation:
I think there are a lot of reasons. Not the least of which was charge for many years the erroneous notion that audiences did not desire to look a female-led hero [film] because of a slew of films 15 years ago that didn't work. And my belief was always that they didn't take action not because they were female-led stories --- they didn't take action because they were not particularly good movies.
While there have been female-led superhero movies in the past, such as Supergirl and gulp Catwoman, within the objector boom of the genre, it's mostly been driven by male-led movies, behind the occasional ensemble adventure thrown in. The DC elongated Universe delivered upon the female-led belly behind shock girl last year, and Captain Marvel will be the MCU's first. while Kevin Feige admitted that portion of this was due to some believing that a superheroine movie wouldn't be successful, in his mind, he never wanted to manage to pay for audiences a subpar product. But eventually Captain Marvel came along and finally offered the unintended to attain this right, and don't think the solo superheroine goings-on will end behind Carol Danvers. As Feige after that mentioned in his conversation behind EW:
With [Ant-Man and The Wasp] and now behind Captain Marvel and many movies to be announced in the near future, I'm anxious for the grow old where it's not a novelty that there is a female-led superhero movie, but it is a norm. And it is less a explanation of, 'Oh, look, a female hero,' and it's more a explanation of, 'Oh, what's this about? Who's this character? I'm aflame to look that.' And I think we can acquire there.
The MCU has slowly built up its lineup of heroines, from Black Widow and Scarlet Witch to Gamora and Okoye, but Captain Marvel marks a forward-thinking step refer for the franchise, and Kevin Feige's comment indicate things will only adjoin from year. As far afield as what's been publicly discussed, a Black Widow movie to be directed by Cate Shortland is in development, and various MCU actresses have expressed captivation in seeing an all-female Avengers movie. Of course, several of Marvel's superheroines and female protagonists already have their feet planted in the TV realm, but there are great quantity more nevertheless waiting to be introduced (like She-Hulk), especially behind the X-Men and wonderful Four properties are incorporated into the MCU.
Captain Marvel hits theaters upon March 8, 2019, and two months after that, Carol Danvers will hover put up to into take action and team up behind the MCU's further long-lasting heroes in Avengers 4.
