In a release on Twitter , Avengers: Endgame directors Joe and Anthony Russo shared a four-second video highlighting Brie Larson's first day ever as Captain Marvel. She is shown with two of the MCU's veteran stars, smiling and hugging Black Widow actress Scarlett Johansson as Captain America actor Chris Evans looks on.

The MCU, more than any other franchise in movie history, has a reputation for throwing together some of the most high-profile casts ever assembled. This video highlights the joy and excitement flowing from one of the franchise's newest faces at the time when she meets two actors who had each headlined the Avengers saga for nearly a decade at the time. It also reminds fans of the very unique situation the newest Avenger was thrown into as she started her MCU tenure.
Although Brie Larson's first MCU solo movie Captain Marvel was released before her first ensemble film, Marvel Studios made the decision to film Avengers: Endgame directly after shooting Avengers: Infinity War . This meant that Larson would suit up as Carol Danvers as a part of the MCU's larger ensemble before shooting her own solo film, even though Avengers: Endgame released nearly two months after Captain Marvel . Larson was thrown right into the madness of shooting what turned out to be the highest-grossing movie of all time, but she more than held her own portraying one of the most powerful heroes of the entire series to date.
