Disney Plus: Iron Man and the 15 best superhero titles to stream at launch
By Mark Lynch
4. Captain Marvel (2019)
Captain Marvel was one of the biggest movies and successes for Marvel Studios in 2019. Grossing over a billion dollars and proving yet again that people want to see strong women in leading roles. It also showed that the star doesn’t need a love interest to have a good story. Captain Marvel had one of the better origin tales we’ve seen.
One of the biggest things they did was spend the ideal amount of time on her backstory. Even though it isn’t well-known, people may have gotten bored if time was wasted showing too much of Carol Danvers’ life before she got her powers.
Even though Captain Marvel isn’t new, it will be one of the more watched movies on Disney Plus. Besides this being a good flick, it’s the first time we’ve had a female lead in the MCU. It’s something people are going to re-watch at and draw inspiration from. It’s also going to be used to pick up hints on the next phase of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
We know about the Skrulls, Nick Fury, and Maria Rambeau (and her daughter Monica). What else was there? Marvel Studios always finds a way to hide things that will come up in future movies. Something that may have seemed minor, but ends up being crucial. There will certainly be articles written up about that once more MCU movies and show start coming out.
