A new production listing reveals Marvel's Captain Marvel 2 starring Brie Larson starts shooting in London and Los Angeles on May 31. The sequel will be directed by the Candyman reboot's 31-year-old director Nia DaCosta. Captain Marvel directors Ryan Fleck and Anna Boden publicly supported DaCosta taking over the director's chair from them, and it seems as if things are moving forward swiftly on the sequel. Larson will of course return, alongside Teyonah Parris' Monica Rambeau and Iman Vellani's Kamala Khan/Ms. Marvel.

Captain Marvel 2 will be set in the present day, as opposed to the 1990s setting of the original movie, and will take place after the events of Avengers: Endgame, which saw Captain Marvel arriving at the last minute to save the day, complete with a fancy new haircut. With a script from Megan McDonnell, one of WandaVision's writers, the hope is that Captain Marvel 2 will be an improvement on the original, integrating Carol Danvers properly into the present-day Marvel Cinematic Universe as arguably the most powerful Avenger. With a release date of November 11, 2022, Captain Marvel 2 is already deep into pre-production, and now a filming start date has seemingly been revealed.
