In Avengers: Endgame, Captain Marvel comes to Tony Stark and Nebula’s rescue after the blip leaves them stranded on the spaceship. She flies into space to discover their ship and helps them return to Earth. Her contribution does not end there as she returns during the epic battle scene and ensures the Avengers emerge victorious.

She faces Thanos with all her might and helps defeat the villain. Captain Marvel promises to remain in touch and help Planet Earth whenever needed. While Marvel has not commented on her return to the upcoming Avengers movies, Brie Larson feels confident about her future in the MCU. In a recent interview for the Bingeworthy podcast, she said,

I just loved being with those ladies so much. And I think that the sentiment of it is so right to me and is much more where I’m at in my life, which is, there’s no one superhero that can save us. It takes all kinds of people that have their own special skill sets and the ability to understand that the brink of disaster cannot be stopped by one. It’s all of us coming together. So that feels really right to me. And you know, as for the future, there’s things that I know, but I can’t tell you.

Larson’s cryptic remark certainly hints at her role in the forthcoming Avengers movies. Her invaluable role in Avengers: Endgame proves how indispensable Captain Marvel is for wars of a massive level. The fact that The Marvels failed to garner popular support does not matter much in the larger scheme of things. Captain Marvel’s character will surely play a significant role in helping the young Avengers as they face formidable foes.
