Sure, weve known aboutCaptain Marvels imminent arrival in the MCU–the movie has a release date of March 8, 2019–for a while now. But if youre anything like us, the whole thing didnt start feeling real until very recently. With our first official look at Carol and her crew of cohorts, both alien and human alike, weve finally been able to nail down and definitely confirm a number of rumored roles and character appearances that have been swirling around the internet for what feels like forever.
EW reported that the movie will pick up with Carol returning to Earth only to find herself beset upon by another alien society, this time in the form of the Skrulls, a race of powerful shapeshifters known to infiltrate and destabilize planets by impersonating their inhabitants.
We have yet to officially confirm just who Laws character actually is, but its long been assumed he would be playing Mar-Vell, a Kree soldier who wound up with a soft spot for Earth after he was eventually exiled from his homeworld. Alternatively, Law could be playing Yon-Rogg, a Kree zealot and commander in the military. Law has previously appeared in big budget franchises likeSherlock HolmesandThe Young Pope.

Rumors of Lynchs role have been swirling since her casting announcement with most fans assuming she would be playing Monica Rambeau, another woman to hold the superhero codename Captain Marvel for a time. It turns out this was partially correct–Lynch will actually be playing Maria, Monicas mother, who uses the air force call sign Photon, another one of Monicas heroic code names. Lynch can be found in the TV showsStill Star-CrossedandBulletproof.
Weve also got more info on the plot than ever before. In case you need a refresher, it goes like this. Carol Danvers is a human who, in the comics (and we can assume in the movie as well) had her genes spliced with the genes of the superpowered alien race, the Kree, which in turn gave her an incredible array of superpowers. Now, according toEntertainment Weeklys cover story,Captain Marvelwill be picking up with this process (or whatever the live-action adaptation of it winds up being) already over and done with. Carols already left Earth, embraced her newfound Kree heritage, and has been training with the Kree military outfit known as the Starforce under an enigmatic commander played by Jude Law. In all likelihood, Law will be playing the Kree hero,Captain Mar-Vell, but well get to that in a second.
Weve actually met Paces Ronan before, back inGuardians of the Galaxywhere he was working with Thanos to hunt down the Infinity Stones. Now were going to see him in a brand new light, hopefully stripped of his genocidal urges, working as a Kree judge. Pace is reprising the role, but youll also recognize him from the TV showHalt and Catch Fire.
One of the breakaway fan favorites of the MCU, Coulson hasnt actually been in the big screen universe for a while now, having made the transition to the small screenAgents of SHIELDTV show. Thats about to change, however, with Coulson set to pop in, digitally de-aged like Jackson, to work in 1990s SHIELD.

Oh, right, and all of this is set in the 1990s, an almost entirely unexplored era of the MCU, home to only a small handful of flashbacks and oblique on-screen references which leaves plenty of room for Carol to work. We also know that were going to be seeing the 1990s version of SHIELD (complete with a digitally de-aged,two-eyed Samuel L. Jackson), meaning theres a pretty strong chance for whatever happens inCaptain Marvelto dramatically and forever alter the way we see the MCU in the modern day. Expect a lot of dot-connecting and circling back to all those little moments in the last ten years worth of movies that are about to be put in an entirely new light.
