Captain Marvel trailer opens with Brie Larson's Carol Danvers crash landing on earth. Later, she is seen with Samuel L Jackson's Nick Fury, who is without his iconic eye patch. A feature by Entertainment Weekly earlier this month had said the film will not be an origin story and the trailer has reaffirmed this. 

Carol Danvers will be in possession of her powers, which she gets after her DNA is fused with that of an alien during an accident. A former US Air Force fighter pilot, Danvers had left the planet to join Starforce, an elite Kree military team, and upon her returns, she retraces her time she had spent on earth.
