[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”9813″ img_size=”900×500″ alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]We’re all excited to see Captain Marvel when it comes out on March 8, 2019. We have Brie Larson making her appearance as Carol Danvers in this not so cookie cutter origin story. When the trailer dropped, don’t lie, you went crazy! Because, how could you not? We could geek out forever about how stoked we all are, but there is one character that we are unaware of. Although Jude Law will be in the film and has been in the marketing for the movie, we aren’t sure who he is playing.
Some surmise Mar-Vell, but that is not confirmed. Law has even detailed the secrecy that he is sworn to by Marvel Studios while speaking with late show host Stephen Colbert:
“I thought you were Mar-Vell,” Colbert said to his guest. “You are not Mar-Vell.”
“I can’t tell you who I am, nice try,” Law responded.
“I think it might be this British-American difference. With Fantastic Beasts, they’re like ‘We assume you’re not going to give away any of these secrets. And if you do, we’re going to tell you not to again and we may quietly kill you.’
“In Marvel, it’s like, ‘DON’T YOU F****** EVER TELL ANYBODY ABOUT THIS!'”
“There was a guy hired, I promise you, on set. I would step out, they would say ‘Mr. Law, we’re ready for you.’ And you would step out in your suit and they’d be like, ‘PUT THE CLOAK ON! PUT THE CLOAK ON! HIDE! PUT THE HOOD ON!’
“My children visited the set. They were running, going ‘SIGN THE NDAs! WHO ARE THESE GUYS?’ It was tight and scary.”
Even Law’s co-star Brie Larson described the own secrecy surrounding her role:
“I think people, and I don’t know, with my very brief experience, my main experience was at ComicCon with the announcement, and I was backstage in the holding area, chatting,” said Larson. “I was out of my mind like ‘I’m talking to Tilda Swinton, I’m talking to the new Spider-Man, I’m so amazed.’ And all of them were like ‘So what movie are you here for? Are you like lost, or are you supposed to be in a different hall?’ I was like ‘Oh no, I’m like part of this now, surprise!’ And none of them knew. So I think that says something to like just what’s happening behind all of this that it’s magical. I feel like I’ve fallen down this magical hole of mystery that I don’t know what’s happening.”
Who do you think Law is playing? Let us know![/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
