Brie Larson Talks Currently Shooting ‘The Marvels’ & Massive Sets: “I Get To Go To My Own Private Disneyland”

Yesterday, Brie Larson did an interview with SiriusXM Stars (captured by and shared online by fans as the full interview was on their app), where she talked about the routine of shooting The Marvels directed by Nia Dacosta (Candyman) and compared the massive sets on the production to her own private Disneyland.

Confirming that production is indeed underway in the United Kingdom.

Director Nia DaCosta recently spoke with Entertainment Weekly about the Captain Marvel sequel and how Marvel Studios is giving her more freedom than she’s had on her last two projects.

“It’s a lot less traumatizing to work on for sure [laughs]. But this movie also deals with specific, personal, sometimes sad things. But no, it’s been nice to work in a different world for sure. It’s amazing. [It’s] more [freedom] than I’ve had on anything. It’s great because we’re all just comic-book nerds who want to make a great comic-book movie.”

The Marvels (working title Goat Rodeo) as we’ve previously confirmed will mainly shoot at Longcross Studios in Surrey, England with a production team that has cinematographer Sean Bobbitt (Widows, Judas & The Black Messiah) and production designer Cara Brower (Candyman).

Local South Korean outlets reported on Parasite actor Park Seo-Joon joining the film, but have yet to be supported by Hollywood trades or Marvel/Disney.

There is a proximity to the Skrull event series Secret Invasion (shooting in England and Scotland), which is also shooting close to Longcross and likely means the cast members on both shoots could crossover. It’s also assumed that Iman Vellani’s Ms. Marvel series will also plant seeds for The Marvels too.

Larson also teased alien worlds and off-world settings, which is nice to hear considering that the best parts of Captain Marvel took place on other planets than Earth.

Zawe Ashton was previously announced as playing a villain, but we’re still waiting on confirmation of that that role will be.

Disney has given the sequel a release date of November 11, 2022.

‘The Marvels’: Production Designer Cara Brower Confirmed For ‘Captain Marvel’ Sequel

The Ronin has been able to confirm that Candyman production designer Cara Brower is indeed working on Captain Marvel 2. The upcoming sequel has been newly titled as The Marvels during Marvel Studios’ big Phase 4 presentation yesterday. Cara previously worked with director Nia DaCosta on MGM’s Candyman sequel/soft-reboot produced by Jordan Peele. As an art director she worked with Jordan on his Get Out follow-up Us and the fantastic Hail Caesar! from the Coen Brothers.

Confirming Cara as the production designer comes after cinematographer Sean Bobbitt previously announced he was also on the production team. Bobbitt’s credits include 12 Years A Slave, Judas & The Black Messiah, Widows, Byzantium, Shame, Hunger, The Place Beyond The Pines, and the Oldboy remake. Assembling these two folks would suggest production isn’t that far away.

The Marvels will see three generations of Marvel Comics heroines come together with Carol Danvers played by Oscar-winner Brie Larson, Monica Rambeau played Teyonah Parris, and Ms. Marvel’s Kamala Khan played by Iman Vellani. It’ll be interesting to see how the dynamic works and if we’ll be seeing an Earthbound story or something very much taking place within the cosmic side of the MCU.

British actress Zawe Ashton (Nocturnal Animals, Greta, Velvet Buzzsaw) has been reportedly tapped to play the film’s villain, it’s unclear if she’ll be playing a human or alien foe.

There is a shot that Adam Brashear aka Blue Marvel could also join their ranks as the film could introduce a version of The Ultimates to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Also, there might be a connection to the Skrull event series Secret Invasion as S.W.O.R.D. becomes a crossover organization in future film and television projects.

Disney has given The Marvels a release date of November 11, 2022 and will shoot under the working title Goat Rodeo in the United Kingdom alongside projects like Ant-Man & The Wasp: Quantumania, Moon Knight, Secret Invasion, and Guardians of The Galaxy Vol. 3.
