‘Captain Marvel’: Picture of main villain’s LEGO toy surfaces online
The main villain in the upcoming “Captain Marvel” movie is Talos (Ben Mendelsohn), the leader of the alien race known as the Skrull. A leaked picture of a LEGO toy of the character has now surfaced online.
Just as other Marvel movies, a new toy line has been planned for “Captain Marvel” as well. According to a report by ScreenRant a leaked picture of a LEGO toy of Talos has surfaced online. Commenting on the picture, some of the fans have criticised the toy for not having many differentiating features to set the toy apart from the other Skrull toys.
The Talos toy also comes with a headpiece that appears to have been added for the pointy ears. Some of the fans are not happy about this addition. The rest of the toy follows a similar design of the costume of the character in the film.
Mendelsohn will be playing the character in both the alien form as well as his human disguise. The fans can therefore expect to see another toy of the character soon.
The main plot of the upcoming film revolves around the battle between the two alien races Kree and the Skrull. That war will reach Earth, starting a chain of events that force people like Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) to think about the defence of the planet against these powerful forces.
“Captain Marvel” is a prequel and an origin story of Carol Danvers (Brie Larson). Since the protagonist fights alongside the Kree, it is safe to assume that the Skrull will be the villains in the film.
The report however notes that the idea that the Skrull are the enemy may just be some misdirection. The real villain may be Mar-Vell (Jude Law). It remains to be seen what surprises are in store in the film.
