But it also meant that the relationship between Disney and Scarlett was going to be strained. While the MCU Black Widow wouldn’t be the same without Scarlett, there are other things Disney could do. As we all know that Disney is a major studio, and they are not just limited to producing Marvel films.

Known for her supporting roles in comedies as a teenager, she has since expanded to leading roles in independent films and blockbusters. The petition to replace Brie Larson as Captain Marvel for a woman of colour is now at 30k signatures and Disney/Marvel are monitoring the situation closely. Larson is the recipient of various accolades, including an Academy Award, a Golden Globe Award. In a turn of major turn of events, Brie Larson’s may lose her role as Marvel’s definitive superhero as a petition demanding that she be replaced by a woman of colour hits 30k signatures. It was announced earlier this year that Scarlett will be appearing in the Disney film ‘Tower of Terror’. However, it was before the whole lawsuit thing happened. This led to widespread speculation that Disney and Scarlett are not going to be working together for a while. Amidst those gamblings came stories that Disney has been intending to let Scarlett go and bring some other actress to play the part. It wasn’t hard to guess who would be her replacement.īrie Larson has been in Disney’s good books ever since she donned the suit of Captain Marvel. So, if the reports are to be believed, Disney has roped in Brie Larson to replace Scarlett for the film ‘Tower of Terror’. There was also a report that the film could be shelved but Disney cleared that they were going ahead with it.Brie Larson flew onto everyone’s radar with “ Short Term 12,” and while a handful of smaller roles followed in pictures like “ The Gambler” and this summer’s “ Trainwreck,” she once again gets a showcase part in the upcoming “ Room.” The wrenching drama will wring more than a few tears from audiences and the actress is using that momentum to book another promising gig. Variety reports that Larson has replaced Emma Stone on “ Battles Of The Sexes,” with the latter bowing out due to scheduling issues. Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris are directed the movie, penned by “ Slumdog Millionaire” and “ 127 Hours” scribe Simon Beaufoy, with Danny Boyle producing, about the 1973 Battles Of The Sexes tennis match between the 29-year-old, number two-ranked Billie Jean King, and the retired, sorta boorish champ Bobby Riggs. There are some competing projects about the same subject matter - Elizabeth Banks and Paul Giamatti are slated to star in an HBO movie, while Will Ferrell also has a feature brewing - but this one seems to be in the pole position. It's also thought that it could exceed the $440 million mark domestically during its entire run, putting it behind only Black Panther and the three Avengers movies.And frankly, this is the pairing that sounds most enticing to me. If the movie does hit that target, it would have the seventh highest opening weekend in the Marvel Cinematic Universe's history.Īt $160 million, Captain Marvel would also be the second highest opener of all-time for Marvel Studios in terms of its solo outings.īlack Panther is currently in first place with $202 million. That's an impressive 14% growth over the previously discussed $140 million debut it was eyeing in North America. Now, it seems as if Captain Marvel is all but guaranteed to be a hit because long-range tracking is pointing to an opening weekend of $160 million. These days, it seems like Marvel Studios can do no wrong and with Black Panther recently named the first superhero movie to receive a "Best Picture" Oscar nomination, 2019 has already been a great year for Kevin Feige and company.
