Isn’t the hate that Brie Larson aka MCU’s Captain Marvel gets is too much
Being Captain Marvel is no easy feat, not only she is one of the strongest heroes in the galaxy but she has her weaknesses as well. Oscar-winning actress Brie Larson took up the responsibility to be studios namesake in 2016. In 2019 Larson debuts as Captain Marvel in the eye of a storm. Introduced at the last she debuts between Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame. Ever since she has been ridiculed, trolled and dismissed as Captain Marvel – but why do fans feel so strongly about her. And is all the hate justified? Let’s find out.

Why Fans Hate Brie Larson’s Captain Marvel?
The hatred for Captain Marvel came as soon as Brie Larson was announced. Not for her casting but for being a ‘female superhero.’ Meh right! With Wonder Woman 2017’s success it is quite unclear why would a certain section of fans, better known as trolls, dismiss Marvel’s first-female superhero? Nonetheless, the movie was a massive success on the worldwide box-office grossing $ 1.2 billion.
The trolls didn’t stop their based on the movie they criticized Larson for being expression less andnot smiling enough. However, given Captain Marvel’s traumatic past it was more of a creative choice for her to be smiling or being overtly expressive. Also, when was the last time you saw Batman or Captain America fighting an enemy with a big smile on their face?
The trolls didn’t stop there. After the movie was released many channels made negative videos about the movie and even gave bad reviews on Rotten Tomatoes. This hate however was amplified by some of Brie Larson’s comments.

No one is getting their chair taken away. There’s not less seats at the table, there’s just more seats at the table,” she told Fox DC.
