#TRAILERCHEST : Captain Marvel releases its best footage yet and it brings the pain

Paul Moore

Captain Marvel

We’re pumped.

The universe needs saving and it’s time for Captain Marvel to enter the fray, which is the MCU’s first female-led superhero movie.

From the co-directors of Ryan Reynolds hustler movie Mississippi Grind, and the writing team that consists of folks who worked on the first Guardians Of The Galaxy, we know that this movie will be set in the 90’s.

Hence the de-aged Sam Jackson and Agent Coulson, plus the “I thought you were dead?” bad guy from the first GOTG film, as well as a few new faces…

After teasing us all with the first two trailers, the latest footage gives us a good glimpse at the Skrull invasion and the relationship between Carol Danvers and Nick Fury.

Oh yeah, there’s a lot more ass-kicking footage from what fight between Captain Marvel and the granny (probably a Skrull…but who knows!?!?!)

Plot’s it all about?: The story follows Carol Danvers as she becomes one of the universe’s most powerful heroes when Earth is caught in the middle of a galactic war between two alien races.

After joining an elite Kree military team called Starforce, led by Jude Law’s enigmatic commander, Carol is thrown into an intergalactic battle after the Skrulls invade Earth, led by Ben Mendelsohn’s Talos at the head of the army .

Cast: Brie Larson, Samuel L. Jackson, Jude Law, Ben Mendelsohn, Djimon Hounsou, Lee Pace.

Directors: Anna Boden, Ryan Fleck.

Release date: Captain Marvel will arrive in cinemas on March 8, 2019 in Ireland and the US.

Enjoy!
