Larson is set to play Carol Danvers in 'Captain Marvel, a film set before the events of the first 'Iron Man' movie. Samuel L. Jackson will return as S.H.I.E.L.E. agent Nick Fury in a story involving "the strongwoman battling the aliens known as Skrulls," writes EW.

“I spent months thinking about whether or not I was going to do the film and I realized that it was a chance to tell a story on the largest scale possible,” Larson tells Porter. “I know it is going to make me lose some of the things I love most about my life, but I think it’s worth it.”

In the May issue of Vanity Fair, Larson spoke further about joining the Captain Marvel universe. “Ultimately, I couldn’t deny the fact that this movie is everything I care about, everything that’s progressive and important and meaningful, and a symbol I wished I would’ve had growing up,” she continued. “I really, really feel like it’s worth it if it can bring understanding and confidence to young women — I’ll do it.”
