Captain Marvel Will Probably Debut in ‘Avengers: Infinity War’

Marvel fans are just now sinking their teeth into Captain America: Civil War, but the superhero pile-up is just setting the stage for the two-part Avengers: Infinity War saga, set to begin in May 2018. And, hey, look at that, another hugely popular Marvel character could be making her debut in that one: Captain Marvel, known at one point as Ms. Marvel.

According to ComicBook.com, Joe and Anthony Russo—the brothers who directed Civil War, and who will direct the Avengers: Infinity War films—let it slip during a promotional event at the Smithsonian Institute that Captain Marvel will be involved in the next Avengers. When a fan followed up on the gaffe, one of the Russos replied, "Um....Captain Barvel. Totally different character." He’s probably lying!
