The 26-year-old Oscar-winning actress, who was announced as Captain Marvel during Comic-Con, posted a photo of herself on Twitter busy doing her homework for the role of Carol Danvers.
"LARSON INDUSTRIES R&D DEPT. @ALECKSU," she captioned the picture which features her relaxing on a sofa wearing a Captain Marvel outfit and reading "Captain Marvel, Vol. 1: Higher, Further, Faster, More" by Kelly Sue DeConnick and David Lopez.
Carol, an air force pilot, is a half-Kree (alien species),
half-human hybrid.
There is no director on board as yet for the film. "Captain Marvel" will be out in cinemas in 2019.
