don’t want to hear what a white man has to say about ‘A Wrinkle in Time.’ I want to hear what a woman of color, a biracial woman has to say about the film,” Larson said during an acceptance speech. Never mind that “A Wrinkle in Time” was a film that everyone desperately wanted to like but was about as close to the book as Earth is to Madeleine L'Engle’s planet Camazotz.

She would also state that Marvel approached her and stated they wanted to make Captain Marvel a “big feminist movie.” Larson also appeared in a video where she insinuates the patriarchy is somehow oppressing her despite being reportedly paid $5 million to play Carol Danvers in Captain Marvel.

I'm sure the movie will be fine, but the trailers look so uninspiring.
