Photo: Brie Larson Reading CAPTAIN MARVEL Comic While Wearing CAPTAIN MARVEL Jacket

At San Diego Comic-Con, Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige officially announced the casting of Brie Larson (Room, Short Term 12, Kong: Skull Island) in the role of Captain Marvel. I've been a fan of Larson's for a long time, so I was stoked about this choice from the earliest days of her being rumored for the part, but a few comic book fans weren't quite sold on her as Carol Danvers. Maybe this fantastic photo she posted on her Instagram this weekend will change their minds:
