All set to go higher, further, and faster are the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s power-packed female trio who will be seen saving the world together in the upcoming film, The Marvels. Fans across the globe are excited to see where this unique team-up will lead in the MCU storyline. While the audience has several theories talking about the intriguing team-up, there is yet another much-talked-about speculation about “Carol Danvers AKA Captain Marvel’s MCU Absence Since Avengers” and it was high time someone addressed it!

The Marvels’ Brie Larson addresses Captain Marvel’s MCU absence since Avengers: Endgame

One of the most anticipated questions was finally answered by Brie Larson herself, she said in an interview with Entertainment Weekly, "The way I was able to tap into it and understand it is the concept that Carol kind of became a workaholic, and she lost touch with her heart and with family and friends. That's certainly something I can relate to." Since Avengers: Endgame, Marvel Studios has released ten other movies in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, all of which had Captain Marvel largely absent, much to the disappointment of the fans.

The most recent MCU TV series, Secret Invasion, could potentially feature a reference to Captain Marvel in its final two episodes, or possibly even feature a post-credits scene setting up The Marvels. Revealing an interesting tidbit on this, Secret Invasion star Samuel L. Jackson admits, "He's been calling her, and she's off in galaxies far, far away." He further adds, "She's like, 'Fury, why are you calling me? I told you not to use this [number].' He's like, 'You gave it to me, so I'm gonna use it. And I'm calling you because I need your help!'"

The Marvels stars Brie Larson, Teyonah Parris, Iman Vellani, Samuel L. Jackson, Zawe Ashton, and Park Seo Joon in pivotal roles. Nia DaCosta directs, and Kevin Feige is the producer. The upcoming film follows Captain Marvel, Ms. Marvel, and Monica Rambeau on a cosmic quest to save the world, while their powers inexplicably get intertwined with each other! Will they be able to untangle the power mixup in time to banish the quest? To find that out, one needs to rush to the theatres nearest to them!
