Brie Larson, who will be reprising her role as Captain Marvel, while on an interview with Sirius XM confirmed that she had begun the shoot for the movie. She said, "It's a really unique experience. I'm a huge fan of Disneyland, so to me it feels like I get to go to my own private Disneyland every single day. Because they're building all of these insane worlds that no one else knows about, no one else gets to see. You'll see it when the movie comes out but for now, it's just mine. I'm in sets that are bigger than you can imagine right now. It's really special."
