Brie Larson feels lucky she can talk about feminism for Captain Marvel

That was what fuelled her during the 75 days of filming and the nine gruelling months of training to prepare for the role of Carol Danvers or Captain Marvel, who becomes one of the universe's most powerful heroes when Earth is caught in the middle of a galactic war between two alien races.

In addition to British actress Gemma Chan, who was also at the roundtable interview and plays Kree sniper Minn-Erva, the other women in the film include Lashana Lynch as Maria Rambeau, an air force pilot and Danvers' oldest friend, as well as Annette Bening as the Supreme Intelligence, an artificial intelligence that rules the Kree Empire.

"I feel so lucky that I made my first big blockbuster movie and I just get to talk about feminism all day. I never would have thought that was a possibility for me. That is like my dream." She said:"I am slightly surprised it has taken this long. Is this the 21st ? I think it is about time."She recalled:"Then I was suddenly there and I had to start training. It all happened quite quickly. I had less than three months, so I felt like I was playing catch-up a bit."

The veteran actor, who said he has only seen the trailers, added:"Nick is not as worldly, smart and cynical.In order to play the younger version, which was modelled after Jackson in the 1998 film The Negotiator, he had to put motion capture dots on his face and was digitally de-aged by 25 years, the first time Marvel has done this for the length of a film."I know it is my Negotiator face and that's fine. I had dots on my face and it was more up to to act like I didn't.
