Synopsis

Set in the 1990s, former U.S. Air Force officer and fighter pilot Carol Danvers is involved in an accident which fuses her DNA with that of a powerful alien species, resulting in her becoming Captain Marvel, one of the mightiest heroes in the universe. When she crashes back down to earth with little idea of where she came from, Danvers must piece her memories back together whilst protecting her home planet from getting caught in the middle of a galactic alien war. With the help of a familiar face in Special Agent Nick Fury, ‘Captain Marvel’ is an all-new adventure in a previously unseen era of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and its first with a female lead.
