Brie Larson, actress of The Marvels, reportedly admitted she didn’t like the cat (or cats) who played Goose in the next Marvel Cinematic Universe sequel. In an interview, Larson revealed why she couldn’t connect with Nemo and Tango, the feline actors that portray the cat-like Flerken Goose in The Marvels. “I’m still allergic [to cats],” she said. “I’m hoping that changes.” But, until it does, a large portion of the CGI money goes to me and the cat.” According to executive producer Mary Livanos, Larson’s co-stars were great fans of Nemo and Tango. “The crew was delighted whenever the kittens were around,” Livanos recounted. “When we had our bigger kitten scenes, it felt like Christmas.” Each person had a favourite.” Goose made her film debut in 2019’s Captain Marvel, where she was played by four cats : Reggie, Archie, Rizzo, and Gonzo. Kelly Sue DeConnick and David López developed the character during their run on the Captain Marvel comic book series, when she was known as Chewie. In the interview, Livanos acknowledged that The Marvels is largely inspired by comic books, most notably through the story device of Carol Danvers (Larson), Monica Rambeau (Teyonah Parris), and Kamala Khan (Iman Vellani) continually switching locations.
One of the most difficult aspects of The Marvels’ production, according to co-writer and director Nia DaCosta, was striking the correct balance between faithfulness to Marvel mythology and delivering an enjoyable picture. “The biggest challenge was finding the right balance between my point of view as a director and my point of view as a comic book nerd,” DaCosta said. “Obviously, there are differences between the comics and the films, and I’m like, ‘Whoa, whoa, whoa!’ ‘You’re being too much of a nerd,’ Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige would say at times. Please halt.'” DaCosta also disclosed a personal connection to The Marvels, stating that she relates with Kamala Khan as “a big nerd from New York City.” The director then discussed her formative experiences reading about Khan’s escapades in Ms. Marvel comic books. “Here was this hero who was a big nerd from Jersey City, writing fan fiction the way I used to when I was that age,” DaCosta remarked. “It was really fun to feel that close to that character in that really specific way, in a way that you don’t often feel when it’s Iron Man or Thor.”
