Captain Marvel’s Future After The Marvels Is Uncertain

One of these recent disappointments for Marvel Studios was the sequel to 2019’sCaptain Marvel , 2023’sThe Marvels . On paper , bringing together Brie Larson ’s Carol Danvers , Teyonah Parris ' Monica Rambeau and Iman Vellani ’s Kamala Khan in an epic quad - faring adventure should have been a huge winner . alas , this was n’t enough of a draw , which led toThe Marvelsbecoming the lowest - grossing project in the MCU , despite mostly confirming audience reviews . The Marvelsfailed to match the success of its predecessor , which may put Brie Larson ’s future as Carol Danvers ' Captain Marvel in jeopardy , as it ’s unlikely she ’ll get another subsequence .

In February 2024 , Disney CEO Bob Iger unveil that Marvel Studios would be slowing down output , and focus on theMCU ’s more popular and low - peril franchises . AfterThe Marvels’abysmal performance at the global box office , this is likely to mean that theCaptain Marvelfranchise wo n’t be revisited for quite some meter , especially sinceBrie Larson ’s Carol Danvers has been one of the most criticized superheroes in the MCU ’s history . Even though the criticism of Captain Marvel is largely unjustified , it still place a morose banknote on the cosmic hero , and may convince Marvel Studios to move out her altogether .

Rogue Absorbed Carol Danvers’ Ms. Marvel Powers In Marvel Comics

While it would be a shame forCaptain Marvel to be removed from the MCU , Marvel Studios may be setting up the thoroughgoing room for her departure to make sense on - screen . It ’s very likely that Anne Marie ’s Rogue will be introduced in Marvel Studios’X - Menreboot , and the MCU could finally adapt her long - running rivalry with Carol Danvers . In one of Rogue ’s first and most powerful Marvel Comics storylines , she engross Carol Danvers ' ability , who was then going by Ms. Marvel , and leaves the superhero powerless and without her memories . This was detail in 1992’sMarvel Super - Heroes ( Vol . 2 ) # 11 .

At this time , Rogue was a fellow member of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants , working under the command of her adopted mother , Mystique . Danvers ' memory were part touch on by Professor X , but the then - powerless Ms. Marvel desert the Avengers and began work alongside the hug drug - Men instead , berating her former mate for not helping her . Rogue and Carol Danvers fight down many more times , even after Danvers regain her abilities and Rogue had become a penis of the X - Men , and this vivid and complex dynamic could be the perfect direction to bringRogue into the MCU , and perhaps bid farewell to Captain Marvel .

Carol Danvers’ MCU Departure Could Set Up Rogue As A Powerful Villain

Rogue debuted in Marvel Comics as a supervillain , put to work alongside her adoptive female parent , Mystique , and the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants , but this aspect of Rogue ’s personality has n’t been seen on - screen . twentieth Century Fox’sX - Menfranchise introducedAnna Paquin ’s Rogueas a young runaway who constitute her way to Xavier ’s School for Gifted Youngsters after befriending Hugh Jackman ’s Wolverine . Paquin ’s Rogue was never express with nefarious inclination , and was in fact a very blue and anchor character in the franchise , butMarvel Studios could make the MCU ’s unexampled Rogue much more comic - exact , particularly by bringing her into engagement with Captain Marvel .

Rogue is an incredibly powerful mutation in Marvel Comics , but she never quite get hold of her full potential drop in Fox ’s original X - Men trilogy .

There ’s been no prescribed confirmation of what the hereafter holds for Brie Larson’sCaptain Marvel in the MCU , but it ’s potential that Rogue could be introduce to slip her power and bequeath her without a real place in the franchise . This would for sure be a very aroused farewell for Captain Marvel , but would leave Rogue to prove her strength and villainy from the get go . install Rogue as an MCU baddie who is willing to slip the ability of more - established superheroes would create powerful moments , and would make her evolution into a superhero and X - Men team member even more satisfying .

Captain Marvel’s Ending Can Lead To Her Becoming More Powerful Than Ever

While Rogue ’s MCU debut could be used to only decimate Carol Danvers ' Captain Marvel from the MCU after a disappointing run inThe Marvels , it ’s possible that this could actually put up Danvers for an even more hefty function . In Marvel Comics , soon after Rogue had absorbed her abilities and she had leave behind the Avengers for the X - Men , Carol Danvers was subject to torturous genetic experimentation by the bloodsucking Brood aliens , which transmute her into Binary , a being who could tap into the unprecedented power of a White Hole , which allowed Carol Danvers to tick Rogue in their next battle .

This intend that Rogue stealing Carol Danvers ' magnate in the MCU could lead to her becoming Binary , and this has perhaps already been teased in 2023’sThe Marvels . The Marvels’post - recognition scenesaw Monica Rambeau trapped in an alternating reality populate by the X - Men , including Kelsey Grammer ’s Beast and Lashana Lynch ’s Maria Rambeau , who skylark a red - and - white costume in the same design as Binary from Marvel Comics . This paint a picture that the competition between Rogue and Captain Marvel has already begun in the MCU ’s multiverse , so could also extend in the MCU ’s main persistence , perhaps in Marvel Studios ' upcomingX - Menreboot .

Marvel ’s ex - Men is the doubtful title for the future debut of the legendary Marvel mutant superhero squad in the Marvel Cinematic Universe .
