See the first photos of Brie Larson as Captain Marvel

Brie Larson is ready for her superhero career to take flight.

The Oscar winner, 28, was photographed in costume as Captain Marvel for the first time Wednesday afternoon while filming in Atlanta.

Larson is signed on to play Carol Danvers, an Air Force pilot who gains superpowers after her DNA is fused with that of an alien following an accident, in the 1990s-set “Captain Marvel.” It will be the first Marvel solo film to focus on a female character.

The movie, which will be directed by Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck, is expected to hit theaters on March 8, 2019. Larson will then appear in the still-untitled fourth “Avengers” film in May.
