The Marvel Cinematic Universe has a slew of epic movies and TV shows set to arrive in the next few years, bringing new and returning characters into the billion-dollar franchise. One character that fans have been eager to see return is Carol Danvers/Captain Marvel (Brie Larson), who made a major impact on the MCU in both Captain Marvel and Avengers: Endgame last year. Last month, it was reported that a sequel for the film was officially in development — and now it looks like it’s one step closer to arriving. According to a new tweet from Geeks WorldWide’s Thomas Polito, Marvel recently filed an LLC for “Warbird Productions II”, something that the studio often does in preparation for new productions. Given the fact that the first Captain Marvel’s production went under the name “Warbird Productions”, this certainly seems to indicate that things are moving forward with a sequel.

Captain Marvel 2 will be written by WandaVision staff writer Megan McDonnell, and is expected to take place in the MCU’s present day. A director for the film has not been officially announced, by Marvel is reportedly “hoping to find” a female director for the job. The film is reportedly targeting a 2022 release date.
