Captain Marvel isn't just making a killing in our hearts--she's actually set a completely new box office record.


Brie Larson, Carol Danvers, and the Marvel Cinematic Universe just made history by grossing over $1 billion--a record held in the superhero genre solely by male superhero movies.

Brie Larson celebrated earlier this weekend with an Instagram post.


This even beat out DC's Wonder Woman, which earned $100 million in its opening weekend.

Captain Marvel earned $153 million. The movie is now Marvel's eighth most successful movie.







Carol Danvers' next appearance is scheduled in Avengers: Endgame at the end of the month, but talk of a Captain Marvel sequel is under way now that the film has crossed this impressive threshold.








Black Panther tops the list of highest grossing Marvel films.

Marvel also has eleven films on its "upcoming" roster, nine of which are as of yet untitled.

Aside from Avengers: Endgame, the other named upcoming film is Spider-Man: Far From Home.






Let's hope we see more of Carol Danvers across the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Captain Marvel is not Larson's first foray into the world of superheroes. Back in 2010 she played Envy Adams in Scott Pilgrim vs. the World which is available here.

She said she met her husband, President Donald Trump at a New York City party in 1998 and did not meet Epstein until 2000, contradicting a witness statement in the Epstein files that alleges Epstein introduced the couple.

Delaware Democratic Representative Sarah McBride pushed back at South Carolina Republican Representative Nancy Mace after Mace responded with transphobia to McBride's criticism of President Donald Trump's genocidal threat to kill the "whole civilization" of Iran.

Trump has insisted that God supports his war on Iran and declared—before a provisional ceasefire was announced—that "a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again" ahead of a deadline to bomb Iran’s power plants and bridges that legal scholars and world leaders have said would constitute war crimes.

Comedian Explains How Millennials' Midlife Crises Are Different From Past Generations—And He's Spot On

Don't make promises you cannot keep, unless your goal is to hurt someone.

Millennials know that practically better than anyone. They were fed a long and impassioned series of advice, hyper-focused on the importance of getting a college degree in order to find a good job.
