Where was Captain Marvel filmed? Filming Locations Guide

Captain Marvel is a super-blockbuster about the most super-powerful hero in the galaxy. On this occasion, the Earth is caught in the middle of a cosmic conflict between Skrulls and Kree, two alien races at war.

Captain Marvel was filmed in and around Los Angeles, California, and also a few scenes were set in Louisiana.

The action is set in 1995, taking place before the events depicted in all the Avengers films (before they even existed as a group).

Oscar-winning Room actress Brie Larson stars in the film as Vers/Carol Danvers/Captain Marvel. Samuel L. Jackson, who was digitally de-aged, plays the future director of S.H.I.E.L.D., two-eyed Nick Fury. Jude Law is Danvers' mentor, Yon-Rogg.
