Yesterday, Marvel Studios announced that they have begun production of their newest film, “Captain Marvel.” The production is shooting in and around the greater Los Angeles area, which will also serve as the production base for the film. The production will also shoot on location in Fresno, California, as well as locations in Louisiana, including Baton Rouge and New Orleans.
I was excited to see Clark Gregg on the roster as Agent Colson returning to his first Marvel feature film since The Avengers. This makes sense due to the film taking place in the 90’s before Loki killed him. Also to return is Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury, Djimon Hounsou, and Lee Pace resume their roles as Kree warriors who we first saw in Guardians of the Galaxy vol 1. Captain Marvel will be directed by Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck. Make sure you check out the movie synopsis and cast list below!
