Carol Susan Jane Danvers is a fictional character portrayed primarily by Brie Larson in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) media franchise—based on the Marvel Comics character of the same name—commonly known by her alias, Captain Marvel. Danvers is initially depicted as a U.S. Air Force fighter pilot who was given superhuman abilities when a light-speed engine test went wrong and she was exposed to the cosmic energy of the Tesseract. She was subsequently transformed into a Human-Kree hybrid via blood transfusion and renamed Vers.
Initially loyal to the Kree Empire, she serves as a member of the Starforce in their war against the Skrulls, but eventually returns to Earth where she regains her memories. She unlocks her dormant powers including superhuman strength, energy projection and absorption, and flight. She befriends Nick Fury, inspiring him to create the Avengers Initiative. Decades later, she returns to Earth, joins the Avengers and participates in the battles against Thanos as depicted in Avengers: Endgame (2019).
As of 2023[update], Danvers has appeared in four MCU films, as well as in the miniseries Ms. Marvel (2022). Alternate versions within the MCU multiverse appear in the animated series What If...? (2021), voiced by Alexandra Daniels.
