As per the tradition, the recent Captain Marvel featured two post-credits scenes, one of which paved the way for Carol Danvers’ appearance in Avengers: Endgame, while the other served as a last-minute gag based around a new fan favorite.
The first of these two bonus sequences – in which Captain Marvel arrives at the Avengers Compound – was officially released online last month in the lead-up to Endgame. Now, it seems that Marvel is finally ready to share the second post-credits scene, and while there’s not a whole lot going on in this clip, a little bit of Goose can go a long way.
As it stands, this short scene of Goose throwing up the Tesseract is the most recent point in the MCU timeline to feature Carol’s feline friend, raising the question of what exactly she’s been doing for the last couple of decades. In an interview last month with Fandango, Endgame co-director Anthony Russo was even reluctant to confirm whether or not the Flerken perished in Thanos’ snap, though it remains unclear if Goose actually lived long enough to see the events of Avengers: Infinity War.
That being said, given the instant popularity of the character, you have to imagine that Goose will be making a return somewhere down the line. Perhaps another team-up with Nick Fury is on the cards, or maybe she can reunite with Carol in the heroine’s inevitable solo sequel.
So far, details on Captain Marvel 2 are in short supply, though Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige has hinted that it may be another period film that picks up where the first movie left off. Hopefully Marvel can offer a few further details in the coming months, but in the meantime, we’ll keep an eye out for Fury’s furry companion when Spider-Man: Far From Home comes out on July 2nd.
