The stars are finally aligning for the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s first female-led solo film. Nope, sorry Black Widow — it’s Captain Marvel who’ll be flying into theatres come March 7.

As a treat to Marvel fans in Singapore, Captain Marvel stars Brie Larson, Samuel L. Jackson, Gemma Chan, as well as directors Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck will be dropping by our shores next month to drum up some serious hype.

Starring Academy Award-winning actress Brie Larson as the titular superheroine, the latest entry in the MCU will be a prequel set in the ‘90s that focuses on the (excuse our nerdy exposition) galactic Kree-Skrull war that has infiltrated Earth. Being set way before the appearance of Iron Man and the Avengers team-up, expect a younger version of Sam Jackson, de-aged through the magic of CGI and, of course, Disney’s deep well of money.

Marina Bay Sands will be hosting the Captain Marvel gala on the evening of Feb 14, and everyone is invited to the red carpet fan event. Registration kicks off at 10am on Feb 10, and knowing MCU fans here, tickets will be cropped up pretty quick.

The machinations of the Marvel machine have involved Singapore pretty closely in the past couple of years, with multiple appearances made here by the major stars that make up its cinematic universe. Last year, the actors and directors of Avengers: Infinity War caused quite an entertaining media circus in town, and no doubt the upcoming follow-up to Infinity War will be a whole new cosmic commotion. Just a reminder to local showbiz media, no spoilers like last time, please.
