Chan shared on her social media accounts that she was joining the cast by sharing a screenshot of an article that revealed the news. On both her Instagram and Twitter, she wrote in the caption that she is “Very excited to be joining the MCU #CaptainMarvel.”

Chan will be playing Captain Minn-Erva, who goes by the alias Doctor Minerva. She is a geneticist from the alien race Kree, and is one of Marvel’s antagonists in the comics. Minn-Erva also possesses similar powers to Captain Marvel. So it is only fitting that the first female-led Marvel movie would also feature a female counterpart.
