Until recently, when it came time for Marvel to release a blockbuster starring a woman, fans waited to see how the movie would be received before jumping on board the female-fronted train. The fact that captain marvel girl broke records on its opening weekend is not only encouraging but is also a necessary corrective to years of misogynistic reaction to women in power.
The film, directed by Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck, introduces Brie Larson’s Carol Danvers in the middle of a war between Kree and Skrull alien races. It’s at this point that she learns that, in addition to being a mighty warrior, she is also human and has a past life on Earth that she can’t recall. She discovers that her late mentor Mar-Vell was a member of the Kree race and that she has inherited his powers, which include the ability to absorb magical energy, superhuman strength, decelerated aging and an unstoppable regenerative healing factor.
As a result of her abilities, Danvers becomes one of the most powerful heroes in the universe. She fights in order to protect others, a practice that is a key part of her character. Yet she also possesses the capacity to realize her own potential and empower herself. Unlike many superheroes, Danvers isn’t told to control herself in the face of a challenge; she gets up because she’s better, smarter and faster than everyone else, and because she thinks it’s the right thing to do.
