Brie Larson describes herself as “generally stoked” and she should be after the year she’s had. After winning the Oscar for Best Female Performance in a Drama for her role in Room, the casual Brie is now a hot ticket A-lister. She took to Twitter to announce her leading role in the upcoming Captain Marvel movie, which caused comic book fans’ heads to spin and take the conversation viral. From red carpet glamour to Comic Con geekery, Brie Larson has the staying power beyond most “it girls” we’ve seen in Hollywood for a long time, especially because she brings Hollywood down to Earth.
