Brie Larson’s White Tanktop Returns In New Trailer For ‘The Marvels’ (Which Was Weirdly Released In The Middle Of The Night)

Somewhat strangely, Marvel Studios decided to drop the new trailer for The Marvels — their final theatrical release of the year — during the middle of the night on Friday, July 21.

The trailer features Brie Larson’s return as Captain Marvel, a character she previously portrayed in 2019’s Captain Marvel and Avengers: Endgame. Alongside the Academy Award-winning Larson, Teyonah Parris and Iman Vellani also star as Monica Rambeau/Photon and Kamala Khan/Ms. Marvel, respectively.

You can check out both the official synopsis and trailer — which features the return of Larson’s instantly viral white tanktop — for The Marvels below:

Carol Danvers aka Captain Marvel has reclaimed her identity from the tyrannical Kree and taken revenge on the Supreme Intelligence. But unintended consequences see Carol shouldering the burden of a destabilized universe.

When her duties send her to an anomalous wormhole linked to a Kree revolutionary, her powers become entangled with that of Jersey City super-fan, Kamala Khan aka Ms. Marvel, and Carol’s estranged niece, now S.A.B.E.R. astronaut Captain Monica Rambeau. Together, this unlikely trio must team-up and learn to work in concert to save the universe as The Marvels.

Marvel Studios’ decision to drop the trailer in the middle of the night certainly had fans skeptical about their confidence in the film, though. And given the run that Marvel has been on the last year or so — most recently compounded by the general lack of interest in the $250M-budgeted series Secret Invasion — low confidence in their final movie of the year is particularly troubling.

As mentioned above, The Marvels will be the last of three Marvel Cinematic Universe films to release in 2023, with the first two being Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3.

In addition to the trio of Larson, Parris, and Vellani as the titular Marvels, the film — helmed by Little Woods and Candyman director Nia DaCosta — also stars Samuel L. Jackson, Zawe Ashton, Park Seo-joon, Gary Lewis, Zenobia Shroff, Mohan Kapur, Saagar Shaikh, Lashana Lynch, Randall Park, Daniel Ings, Colin Stoneley, Shamier Anderson, and more.

You can check out the other teaser trailer for the film, which was released back in April, below.

Marvel Studios will certainly be hoping their 2024 releases — Deadpool 3, Captain America: Brave New World, and Thunderbolts — get the franchise back on track. That is, of course, only if the ongoing actors’ and writers’ strikes come to an end sooner rather than later.
