Rumor Mill
Captain Marvel 2Rumor has it that the villain will be Talonar, who was Robbie Rider in the comics, brother of Richard Rider (Nova). Though, the MCU Nova will be Richard’s daughter, Beth. So the villain will be the sub-antagonist’s uncle. Then Nova and Captain Marvel become friends, and even potentially develop a romantic relationship. Also, Talos will gain the ability to copy powers, like a Super Skrull, by the end of the movie. This will also be the introduction of the all female movie that certain people have been pushing for in recent years. That movie will be the A-Force.
