Captain Marvel was released on Digital onMay 28th. The family loved the film and were so happy to support the first female-led Marvel Studios film, especially when it crossed in the $1 billion mark in ticket sales. The film does such a great job of showing a strong female heroine stepping up to defend the people that she loved and the entire world even when it seems like everything is against Carol Danvers, she keep on getting back up ready for the next battle.
Set in the 1990s, “Captain Marvel” is an all-new adventure from a previously unseen period in the history of the Marvel Cinematic Universe that introduces the MCU’s first stand-alone, female-franchise title character—Carol Danvers aka Captain Marvel. When we first meet Danvers, she already possesses her superhero powers, having left her earthly life behind and become a member of an intergalactic elite Kree military team called Starforce, led by their enigmatic commander, Yon-Rogg. But after Danvers has trained and worked with the Starforce team, and become a valued member, she finds herself back on Earth with new questions about her past. While on Earth she quickly lands on the radar of Nick Fury, and they must work together against a formidable enemy in the form of the Skrulls—the notorious Marvel bad guys made even more dangerous by their shape-shifting abilities—and their leader, Talos, who is spearheading a Skrull invasion of Earth.
