Brie Larson Won’t Allow The ‘Captain Marvel’ Media Tour To Be ‘Overwhelmingly’ White Or Male

“Captain Marvel” star Brie Larson says she’s determined to make sure the Marvel movie’s upcoming press junket is diverse and female-led, pledging to Marie Claire UK that she will keep the tour from becoming “overwhelmingly” white or male.

Larson is starring as Carol Danvers in the Marvel universe’s female-led superhero blockbuster, due out the first week of March. The hotly anticipated “Captain Marvel” draws on the character’s long history, and should be a key element in the Marvel universe’s next generation of films, but feminists — including Larson — are determined to make the movie a landmark for women.
