Captain Marvel is going to include Mar-Vell, the Skrulls, Coulson, and even a young Nick Fury, but it could also include a certain Monica Rambeau.
At least if the next filming location is anything to go by. The next destination for the upcoming film is in New Orleans, taking place starting on June 26th (via Omega Underground). New Orleans is also the home of Captain Marvel‘s friend Monica Rambeau, and it doesn’t hurt that DeWanda Wise’s mysterious role in the film has been described as a “contemporary” of Carol Danvers.

Well, Rambeau certainly fits that description, and it would certainly make sense of the New Orleans sequences. Now, it is important to note that just because something is filming in New Orleans doesn’t mean it will be portrayed as that in the film. Otherwise, most movies would take place in Vancouver or Toronto.
Still, it does lend a little fuel to the Monica Rambeau fire, and that is a character that fans of Captain Marvel would love to see make the jump to live-action. Rambeau, who has gone by codenames like Pulsar, Spectrum, and Photon in the comics, also went by Captain Marvel for much of her career. In fact, there’s a great sequence between Rambeau and Danvers after she starts using the name, something that didn’t exactly sit right with Rambeau.
In ay case, we hope she does make the jump to the MCU, and it doesn’t hurt that she’s been a member of the Ultimates, a group that could always show up in the movies if Marvel wanted to go that route too.
