At one point in time, Captain Marvel‘s post-credits scene was going to tie into Thor: Ragnarok. Spoilers follow…
Captain Marvel is finally with us and fans around the world have had the chance to see the next film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe for themselves. It seems to be going down pretty well if you look at the box office receipts.
A point that is often discussed with the MCU is post-credits scenes and for Captain Marvel, this involved a cat that isn’t all that it seems coughing up the Tesseract in humorous fashion. This wasn’t always the plan, however, as at one point the scene was going to tie into Thor: Ragnarok, as revealed in Empire‘s interview with directors Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck:
“There was an idea on the table about having Jude Law emerge from his pod on Sakaar, and then have him look around and see the Devil’s Anus behind him and wonder, ‘Where the hell am I?'”
Sakaar, of course, is the Grandmaster’s planet in Thor: Ragnarok, and perhaps this suggests that despite the scene being cut, this is where Jude Law’s character Yon-Rogg ended up. Would you like to have seen this scene? Let us know in the comments below or tweet us @FlickeringMyth…
