It seems Mckenna Grace's role has finally been confirmed for Captain Marvel.

Grace was cast awhile ago in Captain Marvel, but her role wasn't disclosed at the time. It turns out though that Grace will be playing a young Carol Danvers (via MCU Exchange) and if that's the case she will be sharing lots of screentime with Annette Bening, who is rumored to be playing Carol's mother Marie Danvers. It is also rumored that Kenneth Mitchell, whose role has also not been confirmed, will be playing Carol's father Joseph Danvers.

In the comics, Carol has a strained relationship with her parents, especially her mother, though the conflict isn't of the normal teenage angst variety. Carol's memories and emotions were wiped out after her fight with Rogue, and that definitely put a strain on her family relationships. It didn't help that she would later lose her memories again, but that's a story for another time.

As for Grace, she is known for her roles in Gifted, Ready Player One, Fuller House, Designated Survivor, The Vampire Diaries, and The Young and the Restless. She's already worked alongside Captain America Chris Evans in Gifted, and now she'll have the chance to work alongside Captain Marvel Brie Larson. Not a bad track record right?

It remains to be seen how much of Carol's early life will be highlighted in Captain Marvel, but fans will definitely get to see at least some of the hero's early days, and Marvel isn't skimping on the talent to make it memorable.
