Head of Marvel Studios, Kevin Feige, has confirmed once more that Captain Marvel has weaknesses and won’t remain unstoppable.
Considering the incredible power displayed by Carol at the end of Captain Marvel, its easy to get carried away and think the character is an unstoppable force, and that she needs not fear death from any enemy.
This would be a mistake, however, according to Marvel Studios head, Kevin Feige. In a recent interview with Slash Film, Feige discussed Carol’s powers and confirmed that every character in the MCU can be killed:
“Well, the point of this movie was to see her exactly as you said, unleashed, unchained. What happens when she taps into her full potential not being held back? So it was not the time to hold back. It was not the time to emphasize limitations or loss. We’d seen that over the course of the rest of the movie. We wanted to see her cut loose.”
“In future stories, well, none of the Marvel characters are immortal. Even ones that seem immortal, some people might be very hard to kill, but nobody’s unkillable. So if we’re lucky enough to see future adventures with Captain Marvel, of course, there will be limitations and there will be Achilles heels and there will be things that we learn and see that it’s not as easy as a slicing through whatever she wants to at any point. But this wasn’t the time to accentuate that.”
It will be interesting to see how Captain Marvel fares when she comes head to head with Thanos in the upcoming Avengers: Endgame, and also if the film will highlight some of her weaknesses.
