I hope fandom writes plenty of fanfiction for them, since the MCU is sorely lacking in femslash. Honestly, I’m also already low-key shipping Maria and Carol. Given the number of women in Captain Marvel, from Carol to Maria to Minn-Erva to the Supreme Intelligence, I am excited that this film is making sure that Carol’s relationships with the women around her are just as important as her relationships with her male counterparts. One of my biggest complaints about fellow female superhero film Wonder Woman is how, after Themiscyra, the film trends more towards Diana interacting with men. Let the new, post- Endgame Avengers lineup feature plenty of women.Īlso, in general, Larson’s comments thrill me. The whole “one woman per team” situation is not working any longer. Captain Marvel will shake this up with a main love story between the two women, and hopefully, going forward, Carol will have a lot of female friendships. The closest thing we have had to a key female relationship is Gamora and Nebula, and they are still supporting roles to Peter Quill’s family issues. Instead of getting some most likely weird romance between Carol and whoever Jude Law is playing, Carol’s main relationship will be with her friend and her friend’s daughter, Monica it’s likely that once Carol catches up with the main timeline, Monica will have grown into the superhero Spectrum herself. This is why you can clearly see a woman wrote Captain Marvel. ![]() The television shows feature more women speaking to each other, but in terms of film? It’s all about the dudes when it comes to interpersonal relationships.

And it’s her best friend and her best friend’s daughter which, to me, is so natural.”įemale friendships are incredibly powerful, and often unexplored in the superhero genre. ![]() This is the love lost, this is the love found again, this is the reason to continue fighting and to go to the ends of the Earth for the person that you love. “Without being too showboating about it, this is the love of the movie. But I think that’s a really tight-knit bond that they have, and they’re family. ![]() Of course, I think they would have been friends outside of that experience. “What they’ve gone through together-going through military training, being the only women there, and then using each other to lean on each other for that support and a recognition of their experience is really special. It seems as though Carol Danvers (Brie Larson) is getting her great love, too, and it’s with Lashana Lynch’s Maria Rambeau.Īt a recent press conference, Larson spoke about Maria and Carol’s connection, and how it strengthens the film. It can be romantic love, platonic love, or familial love, but love is the greatest motivator a superhero can have. ![]() Superhero movies, more often than not, contain a love story.
