Brie Larson is an American actress who joined the MCU in March 2019. She made her debut in the solo film Captain Marvel, playing the titular heroine, and not much later she stood alongside famous superheroes in Avengers: Endgame and aided them in the final battle against Thanos. Despite her participation in such major titles belonging to Marvel's library, the character has since scored only a few marginal appearances.

This dry spell, however, is set to end with the upcoming MCU show, The Marvels, in which Carol Danvers is expected to be one of the main characters alongside characters Monica Rambeau and Kamala Khan. It's a big comeback for the superheroine played by Larson, but ahead of the film's release, many enthusiasts are sure to wonder what was going on with Captain Marvel at the time.

With the answer to this question rushes the the actress herself. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly she explained her absence from the studio's recent productions, explaining that her character has become a workaholic engrossed in fighting villains in another part of the galaxy.

"Since helping to defeat Thanos in 2019's Endgame Carol has essentially left Earth, choosing instead to hunt down villains on the far reaches of the galaxy. The way I was able to make the connection is that Carol became a workaholic and lost touch with her heart, family and friends. This is certainly something I can understand."

Justifying the heroine's absence with maintaining order in the rest of the galaxy seems coherent and logical, and more details will probably come in the upcoming production. Premiere of The Marvels is slated for November 8, 2013, until then you can catch up or reminisce about previous MCU productions, which are available on Disney+.
