Part 3/9:
The backdrop to Larson's comments is a rocky relationship with the fanbase. The reaction to her portrayal was notably negative, with many viewers expressing disdain for her portrayal in the original Captain Marvel film. Behind-the-scenes edits during Avengers: Endgame reportedly toned down her involvement, implying an attempt to mitigate the backlash.
Larson's own words inadvertently confirm this friction: her uncertainty and her statement about fans’ disapproval suggest that Marvel and Disney may be re-evaluating her role, possibly sidelining her character in future phases. This has caused industry insiders and fans alike to question the strategic direction of Marvel's female heroes.
