“You have this Kree part of her that’s unemotional, that is an amazing fighter and competitive,” Larson tells EW. “Then there’s this human part of her that is flawed but is also the thing that she ends up leading by. It’s the thing that gets her in trouble, but it’s also the thing that makes her great. And those two sides warring against each other is what makes her her.”

“The Nick Fury we meet is sort of a bureaucrat in an interesting sort of way,” Jackson explains. “He hadn’t become jaded or a slave to the cynicism that we normally see. He sort of respects the people that are above him, more so than the Nick Fury that people are used to.”

“He is driven by a belief in the divine leadership of the Kree people,” Law says. “So he’s almost a devout warrior — unquestioning, conservative, but inspirational.”

Yon-Rogg and Carol have a close mentor-mentee relationship. “These extraordinary powers she has, he sees them as something of a blessing and something that she has to learn how to control,” Law says. “That’s a motif throughout the piece, the element of learning to control one’s emotions and to use your powers wisely.”

Carol and Yon-Rogg’s friendship doesn’t always sit well with the rest of their teammates. “There’s a lot and back and forth that comes with the two of them, which kind of creates a little bit of tension with the rest of Starforce,” Larson adds. “Like, ‘Why do they have a special relationship, and why isn’t it me?’”

Still, Maria can more than hold her own. “Maria’s got a strength that’s undeniable, in that you don’t feel like you need to help her,” Lynch tells EW. “She is thrown into many a situation in this movie that she’s never been a part of, never seen, never experienced — and she just learns it, immediately. She’s very resilient and very strong.”

Between Kong: Skull Island, Captain Marvel, and Larson’s upcoming directorial debut Unicorn Store, Larson and Jackson have starred in three films together. “Marvel was like, ‘Is there anybody that you’d wanna do [the movie] with?’” Larson recalls. “And I was like, ‘Please. I need to be with my pal. Don’t let me do it alone!’”
