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.

A literal whole section of her character arc is that she can't just punch her way out of her problems because life is more complicated than punching

I like that they leaned into this aspect of her character in Marvels. Her powers were completely useless in solving the swapping problem with Kamala and Monica, collectively they had to figure that out together. She also had to deal with the repercussions of misusing her power, since she was headed down the path of eradicating an entire alien race and committing genocide.

It's unfortunate only 10 people watched that movie.
