Carol Susan Jane Danvers is a fictional character portrayed primarily by Brie Larson in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) media franchise—based on the Marvel Comics character of the same name—commonly known by her alias, Captain Marvel. Danvers is initially depicted as a U.S. Air Force fighter pilot who was given superhuman abilities when a light-speed engine test went wrong and she was exposed to the cosmic energy of the Tesseract. She was subsequently transformed into a Human-Kree hybrid via blood transfusion and renamed Vers.
Initially loyal to the Kree Empire, she serves as a member of the Starforce in their war against the Skrulls, but eventually returns to Earth where she regains her memories. She unlocks her dormant powers including superhuman strength, energy projection and absorption, and flight. She befriends Nick Fury, inspiring him to create the Avengers Initiative. Decades later, she returns to Earth, joins the Avengers and participates in the battles against Thanos. Danvers met Shang-Chi and his friend Katy while talking and analyzing the Ten Rings. However, Danvers intertwined her powers with those of Kamala Khan and Monica Rambeau, who swapped powers each time they used them, and together they formed The Marvels to face the Kree Supreme Dar-Benn, who possessed a quantum band to extract resources from other planets to restore Hala, wanting revenge against Danvers.
As of 2024, Danvers has appeared in four MCU films, as well as in the miniseries Ms. Marvel (2022). Alternate versions within the MCU multiverse appear in the animated series What If...? (2021; 2024), voiced by Alexandra Daniels.
Joining the Avengers and fighting Thanos
In 2018, Danvers is summoned via the pager by Fury during the Blip. Danvers returns to Earth and tracks the activated pager to the Avengers Compound where she meets Natasha Romanoff, Steve Rogers, Bruce Banner, James Rhodes, Rocket Raccoon, and Thor. She is then sent to rescue Tony Stark and Nebula, who were aimlessly drifting in the Benatar through space, and brings them back to the Compound. She is grief-stricken when informed about the Blip and joins Banner, Nebula, Rhodes, Rocket, Rogers, Romanoff, and Thor in confronting Thanos on the Garden planet. Danvers assists in subduing him when he reveals that he has destroyed the Infinity Stones to prevent his mission from being undone. Danvers then watches as Thor decapitates Thanos.
In 2020, Danvers meets with Rambeau at her house, who tells her to take and adopt Goose as she could no longer watch her. In 2023, Danvers has become a member of the Avengers under the leadership of Romanoff, involved in space missions helping to quash post-Blip chaos across the universe alongside Rocket and Nebula. Later, Danvers returns to Earth, after learning that the Aveng
In 1995, on the Kree Empire's capital planet of Hala, Danvers, known as 'Vers' (taken from the remains of her damaged dog tag), suffers from amnesia and recurring nightmares involving an older woman, particularly as a former U.S. Air Force test pilot who acquired cosmic energy force powers from the Tesseract after an explosion that wiped out her memory. The Kree decide to use her as a weapon against the Skrulls. Yon-Rogg, her mentor and commander, trains her to control her abilities while the Supreme Intelligence, the artificial intelligence that rules the Kree, urges her to keep her emotions in check. During a mission to rescue an undercover operative infiltrating a group of Skrulls, Vers is captured by Skrull commander Talos. A probe of Vers's memories leads them to Earth. Vers escapes and crash-lands in Los Angeles. Her presence attracts S.H.I.E.L.D. agents Nick Fury and Phil Coulson, whose investigation is interrupted by a Skrull attack. Vers and Fury later go to the Project Pegasus installation at an Air Force base, where they find Goose. They discover Vers was a pilot presumed to have died in 1989 while testing an experimental light-speed engine designed by Dr. Wendy Lawson, whom Vers recognizes as the woman from her nightmares and Goose to be Lawson's pet. They, along with Goose who stowed away on their ship, fly to Louisiana to meet former pilot Maria Rambeau, the last person to see Vers and Lawson alive.
Rambeau and her daughter Monica reveal that Vers is Carol Danvers, who was once like family to them. Talos, arriving unarmed, explains that the Skrulls are refugees searching for a new home and that Lawson was Mar-Vell, a renegade Kree scientist helping them. Talos plays a recovered recording from Lawson's jet, prompting Danvers to remember the crash, whereby she absorbed the energy from the ensuing explosion, gaining powers but losing her memory. Devastated by the truth, she suffers a breakdown that Maria and Talos help her through.
Danvers, Talos, Fury, Goose, and Rambeau locate Lawson's cloaked laboratory orbiting Earth, where Lawson hid several Skrulls, including Talos' family, and the Tesseract – the power source of Lawson's engine. There, Danvers is captured by Starforce and interfaces with the Supreme Intelligence. Danvers removes the Kree implant that suppressed her powers during their conversation, allowing her to reach her full potential. In the subsequent battle, Fury retrieves Goose, who is revealed to be an alien called a Flerken. Goose swallows the Tesseract and scratches Fury, blinding his left eye. Danvers destroys a Kree bomber, forcing Kree officer Ronan the Accuser and his squadron to retreat before overpowering Yon-Rogg on Earth and sending him back to Hala with a warning to the Supreme Intelligence. Danvers departs to help the Skrulls find a new place to live, while leaving Fury a modified pager to contact her in an emergency.
However, by 1997, Danvers is unsuccessful in finding the Skrulls a home. Danvers returns to Hala to fulfill her warning and after fighting off Dar-Benn and other Kree, uses her power to destroy the Supreme Intelligence. Her actions unintentionally causes Hala to lose natural resources and to undergo a civil war making her feel guilty.
