Are the Russo Brothers and the MCU having fun with us again? It seems it may be so, because according to them, Brie Larson’s Captain Marvel character, would not be appearing in ‘Infinity War‘. However, recently Josh Brolin let is slip that he did film with Larson, so either Thanos is in Avengers 4, or Captain Marvel is in ‘Infinity War’.
The Russo Brothers have been here and there when it comes to seeing Carol Danvers in the Avengers films. At first, Joe Russo gave off the impression that Larson’s character was filming for ‘Infinity War’, when he said:
“If it’s not, it is official now, I think Captain Marvel’s got a great outfit in this film.”
Later, however, there was a retraction, or rather a correction when Joe Russo spoke at Comic Con in San Diego and he flat out said,
“…she is not in Avengers 3.”
How more precise can we get? Then we throw Josh Brolin into the mix with his recent quotable moment during his interview with Total Film where he said:
“You’ve got to walk around in a onesie and imagine yourself as an actor with some impact. It starts messing with your head.” He continued with “I’m Josh, who’s got dots on him, and a onesie, and a helmet can, and I’ve got Scarlett right there, and I’ve got Brie, and Don Cheadle, and Hemsworth, and Chris Evans, and Downey… I’m sitting there and I’m looking like I look, which is not 700lb and purple and eight feet tall. I mean, I’m feeling about as far from Jason Statham as one can feel at that moment, and yet I’m acting like I feel 10 times what Jason Statham is. I’m the man!”
This brings many questions into play like, Is Thanos in Avengers 4, and is that because the Avengers basically lose, and it plays into another story line? Or is this a post credit scene? Or even, have the Russo brothers been lying to us to throw us off the trail and Larson’s character is really in Avengers: Infinity War? With both ‘Infinity War’, and the untitled Avengers 4 being filmed back to back, there is no certainty as to which film Brolin was talking about at this point.
‘Infinity War’ is set to release in a week and there are so many questions that will be answered, so finally the Marvel Cinematic Universe fandom will be able to rest easy, that is until Avengers 4 is about to make its way and this whole hype starts up again.
What film do you think Brolin was discussing during his interview? Would you rather see Thanos amongst both films or Carol Danvers in Infinity War? Be sure to let us know in the comments below!
