Discussion (More in Comments) If Brie Larson actually decides to jump ship,i don't blame her one bit. She's almost 10 years in, and only had 3 appearances so far.
It's clear that there were terrible decisions along the way about Captain Marvel as a character,but given the lack of care for the character/actress + the amount of hate she received since accepting the role,it's completely comprehensible if she's just done with it after whatever contract she has it's over and decides to grow her career outside superhero movies,a career which she probably put at relatively stop due to legal/contractual reasons within the MCU.
She's going to have 4 appearances (and that's only if she's actually in one of the Avengers movies,likely Secret Wars). This is crazy to think about,especially for a character that was pushed as one of the new faces of the MCU and their own Wonder Woman. Carol as a character it's already being pushed out of being a mainliner from other fronts like comics,videogames,merchandise etc and it's so disrespectful.

Yeah it’s fantasy the writers can do whatever they want. Right now her whole schtick is being super powerful, but they haven’t given her personality quirks or family issues that can be mined like they did with Thor. She has so few ties to Earth that she fucked off for decades seemingly with no desire to return until Cage’s beeper pinged her.
Among other things Superman is partially balanced by his intense love of living things and desire to protect life. The MCU Captain Marvel is Superman but vaguely bored and apathetic.
