A translated Captain Marvel Japanese poster reveals a new tagline and more insight into the upcoming origin story from Marvel Studios starring Brie Larson.
It has been said in the past that Marvel Studios is reinventing the traditional origin story for Captain Marvel. In the first trailer, Carol Danvers doesn’t remember her early life on Earth and the film might be revealing her origin in a non-linear manner as she re-gains her memory throughout. A fan on Twitter had the teaser poster translated from Japanese and it may explain why Carol doesn’t remember her origin story. There was some controversy last month surrounding a Spanish poster and while translations aren’t always accurate, here is what the Japanese teaser poster in English says:
Just met a Japanese girl! She translated the official #CaptainMarvel poster!
”Lost Past
Memories Trapped
Powers GainedIs this me?
The story before the Avengers.” pic.twitter.com/zIBEYO0brH
