Captain Marvel

Just saw this on Wikipedia:

A large green cocoon can be seen inside the Collector's museum in Thor: The Dark World and Guardians of the Galaxy. In an interview, director James Gunn confirmed that the cocoon does indeed contain Adam Warlock.

^^^ Yep....

And also Adam Warlock's sister will be the villain for GOTG Vol 2.

Young beautiful Oscar winning actress with charisma, yup not buying it

I get thats the smart choice, but as someone who has no financial stake in the movie, i can say i dont feel it either.
I know anyone can be made to look bad ass on film, so thats not my gripe. Just age/looks wise (imo) you need someone that looks like she's done some stuff, has a military bearing, and honestly, an epic rack to pull off former Air Force fighter pilot turned super hero Captain Marvel.

Katee Sackhoff i could easily see trading one liners with RDJ Tony Stark without making him look like a dirty old man.

They're trying to go younger than katee sackoff, who'll be over 40 by the time the first movie is done. I'm on board with what you're saying, but I'd bet Larson is more than capable of acting the character however it needs to be.

Oh i agree/see what you're saying. Larson will do fine if she takes the role. Msrvel has (yet) to disappoint me (fingers crossed on Dr. Strange).

But, like i said i'm just speaking as a fan, not someone responsible for making the right decisions. Saaaackhoooff! 😛

Yvonne Stahovski, Charlize Theron or Rachel Nichols would have been my pick

Could definitely see Yvonne as Carol though I think Kate Beckinsale would also work.

While not my first choice, I can understand why Marvel would want Brie. I just would have preferred to see an actress over 30 cast in the role.

Not a fan of the cast of it turns out to be true

Exactly. I made that point earlier.

The actress doesn't need to have an epic rack. You want something to fap to? Go watch porn.

Katee Sackhoff is a decent actress, but she won't do well in a scene with RDJ and Chris Evans. She would be out of her league. Marvel needs a great actress to hang with those heavyweights. Marvel never goes for the obvious(fancasting) choices. The only exception was Cumberbatch. People had similar reservations about The Human Torch playing Captain America. Now? Well, people couldn't imagine anyone else playing the character.

Finally Brie has been confirmed...

Brie is an excellent choice.

Can't be that hard. Just don't have a crappy screenplay or a space cloud as an enemy and the movie is already on its way to being decent.

I'm more concerned how heavy Marvel is going to be on the pandering. Hopefully it won't be as transparent as their A-Force series.

how do you feel if they change her origin

Marvel has shown that they can tweek the origins of their heroes while keeping the core of their story intact. So I trust them to doe the same here.

However if they plan to base her origin on her latest book then the audience better brace themselves for lots...and lots of pandering.

With her original origin she was more of a Lois Lane type character where she meets the alien Captain Marvel.
