Brie Larson's 'Captain Marvel 2' Might Jump Back In Time Before 'Avengers: End Game'

Brie Larson will continue to portray the lead in Captain Marvel 2. Fans witnessed the exit of the key superheroes such as Captain America played by Chris Evans, Iron Man played by Robert Downey Jr., and Black Widow played by Scarlett Johansson in Avengers: End Game.

Larson is expected to become a key superhero as Marvel Cinematic Universe enters the Phase 4. While Marvel has kept Captain Marvel 2 details secretive, a source revealed that the sequel will take fans into a flashback that will be placed between Endgame and Infinity War.

Due to ongoing pandemic, Marvel had to pause all the hotly anticipated projects. However, the studio decided to reveal the release date of Captain Marvel 2, July 2022. Besides that, Marvel seems to get director Deborah Chow on board to lead the project.

Chow skyrocketed to fame after showing her engaging directorial skills through The Mandalorian episodes, which is streaming on Disney Hotstar. The Canadian filmmaker is also hired to helm upcoming Disney projects such as the Obi-Wan Kenobi series.

If Chow is signed officially then she will be the second female director working with Marvel. Chloe Zhao was the first woman to direct an MCU movie. Chow has several interesting projects in her portfolio such as American Gods, The Vampire Diaries, Mr. Robot, and Fear the Walking Dead.

Captain America 2 is expected to explore between the time jump of the Infinity War. When Thanos portrayed by Josh Brolin snapped and half of the Universe disappeared in Infinity War, Avengers at the beginning of the Endgame managed to trail him down.

Avengers realized that Infinity Stones has been destroyed, which teardown hope of getting everything back to normal. However, the Endgame takes a leap of five years and with the help of Ant-Man, they manage to travel in time.

While the Avengers defeated Thanos and made every normal again, the audience wonder what occurred during the leaping phase. A source said that the answer might be disclosed in Captain Marvel 2. The sequel might also feature few scenes of the key superheroes in the flashback as they were amid fighting Thanos.

While there are multiple flashbacks expected in Captain Marvel 2, the creators get enough room to bring back the favorite superheroes one last time. In fact, there are fans expecting Marvel to add a worthy villain, Ms. Marvel. As Captain Marvel can stay strong even in front of Thanos, she deserves a better counterpart.
