Cast your mind back to April 2016, when Marvel Studios was still teasing the idea of a standalone Captain Marvel movie, and you’ll no doubt remember the moment when Kevin Feige confirmed changes to the origin story of Carol Danvers.
At the time, the Powers That Be felt Carol’s comic book origin story was too similar to that belonging to DC’s Green Lantern, and so Meg LeFauve and Guardians screenwriter Nicole Perlman were tasked with creating something new – something unique.

If her inclusion in Avengers: Endgame is any indication, we should be seeing a lot more of Captain Marvel in the Marvel Cinematic Universe going forward. And while we don't expect any kind of official announcement about Captain Marvel 2 to get here until after Spider-Man: Far From Home has arrived in theaters, here's some of what we would love to see in a Captain Marvel sequel.
Getting to know her life on Earth
