Brie Larson is rooting for an all-female Marvel film and we are here for it!

Captain Marvel star says women associated with Marvel have asked president Kevin Feige to make an all-female movie


Entertainment Desk October 11, 2019

One of the greatest scenes in Avengers: Endgame has to be when an all-female cast lineup save the gauntlet from Thanos' army. That alone made us wish for an all-female ensemble film by Marvel. Imagine Black Widow, Captain Marvel, Scarlett Witch, Pepper Potts, Gamora and The Wasp, battling it out against the bad guys in one single film!

Exciting, isn't it? Even better: Captain Marvel star Brie Larson has revealed that the women associated with Marvel Studios have asked its president Kevin Feige to make an all-female super heroine film, reported Variety.


Asked if the female film has been "truly discussed" at the studio, Larson said, "It is something" and took a pause and continued, "Well what do you mean truly discussed? I will say that a lot of the female cast members from Marvel walked up to Kevin and we were like, ''We are in this together' we want to do this'."

She added, "What that means, I have no idea. You know, I'm not in charge of the future of Marvel but it is something that we're really passionate about and we love and I feel like if enough people out in the world talk about how much they want it, maybe it'll happen."

Feige has previously expressed interest in the all-women Marvel film himself too, though no firm plans to green light such a project have been set.

But lately, Marvel has been putting more emphasis on more female-forward standalone films from Larson's Captain Marvel to Scarlett Johansson's upcoming Black Widow.

Larson also reflected on the Avengers: Endgame scene where her character makes a special appearance, teaming up with all the other ladies of the MCU. For Larson, filming it was a powerful experience.

"It was just a great day," she recalled. "To get to be with all of those women for the day...you get this feeling of, like, almost a little bit of naughtiness because it''s a secret and none of us can talk about it. It felt like we were a part of this, like, coven, working together for this goal. It was an opportunity for us to share and hang out."

Larson continued, "As many people know, a lot of the time, women aren't working together. It's kind of been this new breath of fresh air for us in our industry that there's more female ensemble films, which has allowed us the opportunity to really communicate with one another. So we get excited and feel so much energy when you get to be around your peers and share stories."
