Ben Mendelsohn is a fantastic actor, who was villainously underutilized as the villain in Rogue One. As such, it makes me fucking stoked to hear he is in talks to star as the villain in Captain Marvel. You know, another crack at being appreciated in a blockbuster role.

Man. I’m a sucker for period pieces. And the Skrulls. And Captain Marvel. So the Marvelous Carol Danvers’ first movie is shaping up to play right to a litany of my weaknesses.

Nick Fury is co-starring in the Captain Marvel movie. The cynic in me is hollering with disdain that Marvel doesn’t trust Brie Larson to carry the first female-led superhero movie for their studio.

Brie Larson! Captain Marvel? Not the person that many would have expected (Emily Blunt, Katee Sackhoff, yadda yadda, blah blah). However, she’s a fantastic actress, and if I may be a slob, also very cute and yes maybe I’m obsessed with her a little bit.

Rumor: Marvel looking at Rebecca Ferguson (‘Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation’) for ‘Captain Marvel’

Rebecca Marvelfson

Man. Rebecca Ferguson was dope af in the dope af Mission Impossible 6: Rogue Squadron. So while she hasn’t been a frontrunner (at least in the Internet Papers) for the role of Captain Marvel, I can definitely get down with this.
