With the release date just a few weeks away, Marvel is ramping up the promotional campaign for "Captain Marvel" by dropping a brand-new featurette -- and also a couple of new commercials online.

The footage seems to focus on the "intergalactic war" brewing between Skulls and Kree. We also see some witty exchanges between Carol Danvers aka Captain Marvel (played by Oscar-winner Brie Larson) and hard-boiled S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson). They are two unlikely heroes trying to defend Earth from space-invading, shape-shifting aliens, known as the Skrulls. And while Fury might have a hardened attitude, it's Danvers who possesses an incredible superpower, which may come in handy against Thanos in Marvel's upcoming "Avengers Endgame."

Set in the early 1990s, "Captain Marvel" is the MCU's first female-led superhero movie, delving into the origins of Carol Danvers, a former U.S. Air Force fighter pilot who is ultimately endowed with extraordinary powers after a mid-air accident results in her human DNA merging with alien Kree DNA. Essentially, she is "reborn" as an intergalactic super-warrior who's been recruited to join an elite Kree squad of super-powered individuals called Starforce. Danvers is sent to Earth on a mission to stop a rogue army of Skrulls. Once there, she teams up with a two-eyed Nick Fury as they work together to save the planet.

Directed by filmmaking duo Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck, and featuring an impressive supporting cast that includes Ben Mendelsohn, Jude Law, Annette Bening, Lashana Lynch, Gemma Chan, and Clark Gregg, "Captain Marvel," which has just received some fairly good reactions at early press screenings, is coming to theaters March 8th.
