Come through, Monica Rambeau!

totally forgot this movie was happening, that's cool tho

I really hope she's Monica Rambeau.

Monica Rambeau or riot.

If she's Monica, what are they going to do with her character going forward? Because Captain Marvel takes place in the early 90's. Carol is going to be stuck in time or stop aging or some shit, but I doubt that will apply to the other characters in the movie. Or maybe it will. I don't know.

Black don't crack, so they can use her for 30 years.

This is nice but she's such an awful actress

i couldnt tell if it was her or the writing on shes gotta have it, so I generously chose to believe it was just the writing

i was yeah i would have preferred someone like nicole beharie

Hoping that Nicole will get cast soon in a new role

Nicole for ALL the things. I love her SFM

I am so happy. Her carrer is rising
She is so stunning

How is “She’s Gotta Have it”? I’ve heard mixed reviews and haven’t started watching yet.

it's mediocre but it's a relatively quick watch so try it out for yourself imo

It doesn't quite flow yet but it has its moments. I liked it overall.

I loved it.

First movie role? You’re doing amazing sweetie

that pic doesn't do her justice, she's stunning

she really is

That wig is holding on for dear life

LMFAO

I was in awr of her beauty in SGHI. She is a stunner which is good since her character is a trash fire.

this might be a mistake bc Larson is going to look even more haggard next to her lmao she's literally radiant

PLEASE BE MONICA!!!!! PLEASEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

I love Carol a lot, but Monica's always been my fave Captain Marvel.

I first read the Avengers when Monica was part of the team, so in my mind SHE is the quintessential Captain Marvel and leader. Marvel has paid her dust since the fucking 80's.

It's really kind of odd the way that Marvel just sort of dropped her like a hot potato after the 80s, considering she was one of their marquee characters in the 80s.

She's kicked ass on The Ultimates at least, as part of a lineup that was a big fuck-you to the alt right:

-Black Panther (black man)
-Captain Marvel (white woman)
-Spectrum (black woman)
-Blue Marvel (black man)
-Miss America (lesbian, Latina)
-Galactus (ex-devourer of worlds)

I think they're currently heralds of Galactus, but he's a good guy now, so yeah.
