Brie Larson is a prominent American actress known for playing a variety of characters in films. She started out in supporting roles in comedies when she was a teenager and has since wowed audiences with her outstanding performances. But it was her work in small but impactful movies like Short Term 12 and Room that really launched her into the public eye.

Larson also portrayed Captain Marvel, also known as Carol Danvers, in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. And the upcoming second installment of the Captain Marvel franchise, The Marvels which is planned for release on November 10, will include Brie Larson reprising her role as Captain Marvel.

Easter egg discovered in the trailer for the upcoming film starring Brie Larson

This November, The Marvels, the follow-up to Captain Marvel, will be released in theaters. The character Carol Danvers, played by Brie Larson, will team up with Monica Rambeau, played by Teyonah Parris, and Kamala Khan, aka Ms. Marvel, played by Iman Vellani. Additionally, it appears that the sequel has a connection to Tom Holland’s Spider-Man: No Way Home.

A potential Easter egg from Tom Holland’s Spider-Man: No Way Home has fans excited about the newest teaser for The Marvels. A golden Statue of Liberty has been shown in the trailer at 1:34. This refers to the Statue of Liberty, which was shown in No Way Home and had recently undergone renovation to include Captain America’s shield.

The Statue of Liberty was not entirely gold in No Way Home since it was still being built. The Statue of Liberty in The Marvels, on the other hand, seems to have undergone renovation and is now entirely gold.

This Easter egg is a fantastic way to tie The Marvels and No Way Home together, and it also makes a connection between the plots of the two movies. The multiverse was rebuilt at the end of No Way Home, thus it’s likely that the renovation of the Statue of Liberty is a component of that restoration.

The renowned Statue of Liberty now has an eye-catching new gold exterior thanks to some intriguing alterations made by Marvel Studios. In Spider-Man: No Way Home, as the three Spider-Men battled a group of Multiversal villains, viewers got a peek at this updated appearance. While the statue was mostly covered in scaffolding and under construction in that movie, it received more screen time in the finale of Ms. Marvel, showcasing the full extent of its gold transformation.

Frequently asked questions

What is the connection between The Marvels and Spider-Man: No Way Home?

According to the article, a teaser for The Marvels appears to show a fully gold Statue of Liberty (around the 1:34 mark), echoing the renovated statue seen in Spider-Man: No Way Home. In No Way Home the monument was being remodeled to add Captain America’s shield and was still mostly covered in scaffolding, while the version glimpsed in The Marvels footage looks completely gold. Fans read this as an Easter egg tying the two films together. This is a pre-release trailer reading rather than a confirmed plot point.

Why is the Statue of Liberty gold in the Marvel Cinematic Universe?

Within the MCU, the Statue of Liberty was shown being remodeled to add Captain America’s shield. It first appeared under construction, partly hidden by scaffolding, in Spider-Man: No Way Home, and its full gold look was later showcased in the finale of the Ms. Marvel series. The article notes that as of its publication the statue’s exact in-story purpose was still unknown, and it speculates the change could connect to the multiverse being restored at the end of No Way Home, or possibly tie into Captain America: Brave New World. Treat any specific reason as fan speculation rather than confirmed canon.

Who stars in The Marvels alongside Brie Larson?

Brie Larson returns as Carol Danvers / Captain Marvel. The article says she teams up with Monica Rambeau, played by Teyonah Parris, and Kamala Khan / Ms. Marvel, played by Iman Vellani. The piece lists a planned release date of November 10; release dates can shift, so confirm against official Marvel announcements.
