Brie Larson Underwent Real-Life Air Force Base Training For MCU’s Captain Marvel Role (Photo Credit – Instagram)

Brie Larson didn’t just play Captain Marvel—she became her. The actress wasn’t sitting around when the MCU was getting ready to unleash its first solo female superhero. She hit Nellis Air Force Base in Nevada to train like a professional Air Force pilot. Yeah, she wasn’t messing around.

From meeting service members to hopping in fighter jets, Brie went full-on military mode. An Air Force member, Don Wallace, even flexed on Instagram: “Had the opportunity to have lunch with Brie Larson today!! Going to show her around the F15 later for her upcoming movie Captain Marvel.” Pretty cool, right?

Carol Danvers, Brie’s on-screen alter ego, is a top-tier Air Force grad turned galactic powerhouse. So, this little “bootcamp” wasn’t just for show—it was a deep dive...

The show will be back with all new episodes this Fall 2019. We'll post more details on that at a later date. For now, let's get right back to the matter at hand. CBS did serve up a press release for the finale episode 24. So, that's what we'll be using for this spoiler session.

Stars: Finn Cole, Asa Butterfield, Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, Michael Sheen, Margot Robbie, Hermione Corfield, Jo Hartley, Jamie Blackley, Isabella Laughland, Tom Rhys Harries, Kit Connor, Hanako Footman, Jane Stanness | Written by Crispian Mills, Henry Fitzherbert | Directed by Crispian Mills

Slaughterhouse Rulez, directed by Crispian Mills, is the first produced joint venture between Simon Pegg and Nick Frost’s production company Stolen Picture. The two also star in this campy comedy flick that is mash-up of Edgar Wright’s beloved British comedy Shaun of the Dead and Neil Marshall’s cult-classic underground monster movie Dog Soldiers, released in 2004 and 2002 respectively. However, Slaughterhouse Rulez feels more of a hollow homage of sorts – a thinly veiled layer of both horror and comedy that is sadly entirely derivative of any and all of Edgar Wright’s filmography, albeit with a decent screenplay and character craft.

The performances are undoubtedly the key highlight of this production.

Come July, it’ll be double the fun for Daya Vaidya.

The Unforgettable actress, 38, is pregnant with identical twin boys, her rep confirms to People.

Actress Daya Vaidya is pregnant with identical twin boys.

The Unforgettable star and her husband Don Wallace are set to welcome the tots this summer.

She tells Life & Style magazine, "Even when my doctor saw only one baby in our first ultrasound, my husband said he strangely felt there were two babies.

"When they finally saw the second baby at three months, my jaw dropped to the floor, and my husband said with a huge smile, 'I told you so!'"

It's the actress' second pregnancy - daughter Leela turns three in July. And the mum-to-be admits her first was a breeze.

She adds, "I literally hiked mountains during my ninth month. With twins, it's like walking around with a boulder in my belly and a belt around my lungs. I can barely walk two blocks, and I'm only in my fifth month!"...
