Is Marvel Studios on the verge of releasing the first teaser trailer for Captain Marvel?
Back in August, it was reported that Kevin Feige and Co. had earmarked October as a potential release window for the first-look sizzle reel. But it may be with us sooner than expected.
Taking to Twitter tonight, star Brie Larson Tweeted, “Hey @EW I’m bored. Wanna break the Internet tomorrow?” Replying back, the outlet wrote, “Yes! Meet us here at noon ET. We’ve got something Marvel-ous in mind.” Of course, fans have now been sent into a frenzy, expecting the first trailer to drop, but it should be noted that nothing specific was mentioned.
Remember, we haven’t even seen an official photo or a poster yet, and that type of stuff often comes before a full-out trailer. As such, we imagine that we’ll be getting our first proper look at Larson in costume via a still rather than some footage. But who knows? A trailer’s been rumored to be on the way for a while now, so maybe we shouldn’t completely rule it out just yet.
Whatever it ends up being, you can bet that we’ll be keeping our eyes peeled for it, as Captain Marvel is shaping up to be a massive release for the studio and a game-changer in every sense of the word. For one, the titular hero has been championed as the MCU’s strongest ever character, while there have been rumblings that Larson will become the franchise’s new figurehead for Phase 4 and beyond – presumably at the expense of Tony Stark, whose time at the forefront of Marvel’s cinematic universe appears to be on the wane.
Circling back to Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck’s flick, though, which is scheduled for release on March 8th, 2019, Captain Marvel is the next Marvel movie in line for a theatrical run, and as soon as Entertainment Weekly pulls back the lid on whatever it is they have for us, we’ll be sure to let you know.
