Brie Larson has shared a brand new look at Captain Marvel, but with a very specific purpose – to urge people to vote in the US midterm elections.
The distinctly nostalgic look reflects the film’s 1990s setting, with Captain Marvel hanging out in a phonebooth. Sharing the image on Instagram, she added the caption: “Captain Marvote is a bad pun but now that I have your attention please vote tomorrow.”
Larson’s Captain Marvel, real name Carol Danvers, is a US Air Force pilot who generates superhuman strength and the ability to fly after her DNA is fused with an alien during an accident.
Set in the 1990s, official synopsis reads: “Based on the Marvel comic character first appearing in 1968, the story follows Carol Danvers as she becomes one of the universe’s most powerful heroes when Earth is caught in the middle of a galactic war between two alien races.”
With the screenplay penned by a team consisting of Boden and Fleck, Meg LeFauve, Nicole Perlman, Geneva Robertson-Dworet, Liz Flahive, and Carly Mensch, the cast also includes Jude Law, Annette Bening, Ben Mendelsohn, Lashana Lynch, Gemma Chan, Algenis Perez Soto, Rune Temte, McKenna Grace, and Jude Law.
Samuel L. Jackson also returns as Nick Fury, S.H.I.E.L.D.’s leader, while Lee Pace and Djimon Hounsou back as their characters from Guardians of the Galaxy, Ronan the Accuser and Korath the Pursuer.
Captain Marvel will reach cinemas 8 March 2019.
