The sequel for Captain Marvel was first announced by the Marvel Chief Kevin Feige at the 2019 San Diego Comic-Con. But it wasn’t until earlier this year that the sequel was confirmed to be moving for production. Along with DaCosta, Megan McDonnell is the staff writer on the Marvel Disney+ series WandaVision.
Previous reports suggest that the film will take place in the present-day and it could be a set up for the next Avengers movie. Although the main plot of the film is unclear, there’s plenty of set-up from the first Captain Marvel, Spider-Man: Far From Home and Avengers: Endgame, for Marvel to have plot threads to pull on.
