The first trailer for The Marvels, the next MCU movie, is here – and it looks like it's bringing exactly the kind of fun adventure the last few entries in the timeline have been missing. The follow-up to Captain Marvel looks like a team-up movie that's taking its cues from the first Avengers movie, but with some added chaotic space farce.
The big question I had about this movie is how it would bring together the three 'Marvel'-branded heroes without it coming across as ridiculous coincidence, and the trailer answers it: the film's setup is that Carol Danvers' (Brie Larson), Kamala Khan's (Iman Vellani), and Monica Rambeau's (Teyonah Parris) powers are entangled, and when they use them, they swap places. This is even more of a ridiculous coincidence than I expected, and I think that's why it works for me – it leans so far into it, it comes out clean the other side.
