'Captain Marvel' Movie Release Date, Cast News: Are We Seeing Captain Marvel Soon?
If rumors are to be believed, fans may be seeing Carol Danvers or Captain Marvel sooner that they think. According to numerous reports in Screen Rant, Games Radar and Slashfilm, Marvel may allow fans to get a preview of Ms. Danvers in the upcoming "The Avengers: Age of Ultron" when it is released in theaters on May 1.
According to Screen Rant, while Marvel announced late last year, that they will be making a solo movie featuring Captain Marvel for release in 2018, rumors have also been circulating that the script of "The Avengers: Age of Ultron" also includes cameos of new superheroes who will be introduced and appear as cameos in the movie. Paul Bettany who is rumored to be playing the role of Vision is one of these superheroes. And according to the report, Captain Marvel may be one of them as well.
There is also another rumor about how the film will end that reinforces the idea that new heroes need to come in. This has to do with the rumored end of the sequel wherein The Avengers are no longer a team and Captain America and the Black Widow need to recruit new members to the fold, which may include Captain Marvel.
