The big day is finally here! Captain Marvel officially hits theaters nationwide today and with it, millions of young boys and girls will be inspired by the Marvel Cinematic Universe's first stand-alone female superhero movie.

As mentioned above, the unstoppable villain Thanos was able to succeed, capturing all six infinity stones and using them to wipe out half the population across the galaxy in last year's Avengers: Infinity War.
His reason for doing so was to bring piece and harmony to all, even if that means mass genocide, including the likes of Black Panther, Spider-Man and Captain Marvel's good buddy Nick Fury.
Now, rumors have it that she will be a key element if not the key in defeating Thanos and bringing those erased back into existence.

Just how remains to be seen, but it's certainly no coincidence that this movie comes out just a month before Avengers: Endgame, where we will get to see how this story-line all works out.

The goal is to send young girls to the movie so that they can have an opportunity to see women in roles they can aspire to one day be, roles that show women as strong, smart and bold. From a teacher to a fighter pilot -— or a superhero. This is an opportunity to continue to empower girls to be just that, according to the fundraiser.
GoFundMe teamed up with Girls Inc. LA and We Have Stories, so that young girls from all walks of life could see this type of important representation.
This storyline doesn't focus on a damsel in distress and Captain Marvel doesn't rely on any man for reassurance or protection.

While on the carpet, Larson signed 8-year-old Illie's comic. Larson shared a snap of the special moment on her own social account, captioning the image, I did it for you, superstar.

Princess Leia was, of course, played by the late Carrie Fisher, who is just one of the female acting icons Larson said she looked up to as she dreamed of becoming an actress.

We have really long scenes together in this movie, so you get to play scene partners with somebody who is just incredible, Larson said of her co-star.

Larson transformed mentally and physically to play a superhero in Captain Marvel. She described the workouts she did -- many of which she shared on Instagram -- as hard, really hard, but also mentally transforming.
It changes everything. It changes your mind. It changes the way you carry yourself, but it's such a sacrifice, Larson said, admitting she cried a lot in the gym.
One workout Larson shared on Instagram that quickly went viral showed the actress pushing a nearly 5, 000-pound Jeep up a small hill.

It really started as a joke with my trainer because Captain Marvel can move planets in the comic. So I was like, 'If she can move planets I should at least be able to push a car, ' Larson recalled. After a couple months of training I walked into the gym one day and he's like, 'Alright, today’s the day.'
You realize the importance of good teachers, too, in those moments, she said. A good coach is kind of everything because I would have never thought that I could do that, and then [had] that experience of doing it and realizing that I could do more than what I previously limited myself to.
