Brie Larson is an award-winning actress with an Oscar, a Golden Globe, and an Emmy, as well as having a fairly successful musical career in her early years when she signed with Casablanca Records. Now she’s nailing it as Captain Marvel with millions of adoring fans and returns that love by being such a huge fan of Taylor Swift that she doesn’t let anyone ever forget it.

While Swiftie credentials are being shown off all over the internet from young TikTokers to elderly bloggers, Larson never fails to show off hers. One day, she posts an unconventional workout video with “Anti-Hero” in the background, and the next, she’s covering a Taylor Swift song while sounding pretty good at it too. The crossover fanbase enjoys every time Larson gives Swift attention, and her “Champagne Problems” tweet is just starting to blow up.

Of course, Swift is talking about a guy who gets his heart broken on the dance floor because she wasn’t prepared to say yes to his proposal. However, “champagne problems” has historically referred to the hard decision a person might have to make between two things that are both great, like a new sports car in one hand, and the $250,000 value of it in the other. By the looks of Larson’s latest tweet, she seems to have “champagne problems” all the time.

Sarcasm is a sign of flattery, right?

After posing for the perfect amount of time, she walks away with a smile and that’s the touch that makes Larson so special to her fans.

It appears that there is one fan who hasn’t seen her as Captain Marvel. They have no idea what they’ve been missing.

It’s a pretty big thing that she has been given the nickname of “Mother,” a strong, nurturing force who is very protective of her children.

Some Larson fans might not make it to see her next tweet.

With some fans missing the reference, it’s good to see them tweet when they do.

Brie Larson could tweet a video of her in a ripped-up sweatsuit and the love would pour in from all over the world, but this is a stunning dress and her fans love her for showing it off.

New ‘Shazam! Fury of the Gods’ trailer shows what it’s like to provoke the fury of the gods

The DCU might be in a shambles at the moment, with James Gunn taking over to give it a hard reboot, but there are still a few flicks that fans remain cautiously optimistic about, and one of them is Shazam! Fury of the Gods.

The original was not a memorable movie by any stretch of the imagination. Indeed, the best word we could come up with to describe it is “serviceable.” But even then, thanks to a cast of talented breakthrough stars like Jack Dylan Grazer and Asher Angel, not to mention other geekdom veterans like Zachary Levi and Mark Strong, 2019’s Shazam! turned out a commercial success and received decent acclaim from the fandom.

Now, director David F. Sandberg is returning with an even more ambitious sequel. This time around, instead of Billy Batson playing the part of the burgeoning hero and going about it alone, he will be joined by the rest of his foster family, who have all inherited the powers of Shazam.

As seen in the trailer above, Fury of the Gods will be much more group-oriented, bringing to minds movies like The Avengers or Justice League as opposed to a solo superhero outing. The comedy is also there, so despite growing in scale, it’s good to know the movie still refuses to take itself too seriously, which was one of the few charms of the first entry.

Levi and Angel will be joined once again by Jack Dylan Grazer, his older version Adam Brody, Rachel Zegler, Ross Butler, Ian Chen, Meagan Good, Faithe Herman, Lucy Liu, and Helen Mirren. Djimon Hounsou is also reprising his role as the wizard Shazam, who bestowed his powers to Billy in the first movie.

Fury of the Gods will come out in theaters on March 17.
