Captain Marvel continues casting as DeWanda Wise has joined the movie.

DeWanda Wise, known for Netflix’s She’s Gotta Have It, will play a supporting role. 

Captain Marvel has been said to start filming some time this month for its March 8, 2019 release.

The film is being directed by Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck starring Brie Larson as Carol Danvers / Captain Marvel, Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury, Jude Law as Walter Lawson / Mar-Vell and Ben Mendelsohn is rumored to play the villain, Skrull commander / leader.

A previously released description for Captain Marvel offered: The superhero film will be set in the 90s, and the Skrulls, alien shape-shifters, will be the primary antagonists. After encountering the Kree hero, Captain Marvel, Carol Danvers was accidently subjected to otherworldly radiation that transformed her into a superhuman warrior. Calling herself Ms. Marvel, she established herself as one of Marvel’s most powerful and prominent heroes as a sole heroine and as a member of the Avengers. Recently, she adopted the mantle of Captain Marvel for herself.
