Brie Larson, congratulations on this movie.
This is a cool thing.
I think it's cool.
Yes.
It's a very cool thing to be a part of.
Seems OK.
Yes.
And you're here for our Super Bowl show.
Is that exciting?
I know.
I can't wait to learn about it.
So what is it?
All right, well, it's football.
Now--
OK.
--where are you from?
Here.
Los Angeles?
Yes.
So you know the Rams, of course.
(CONFUSEDLY) Of course.
You're not a football fan.
I don't know anything about it.
Nothing about it?
I know that there's a ball.
Yes.
I actually played in a football game,
which is unfortunate for the team I was on,
which was also televised.
It was a DirecTV football game.
Eli Manning was my coach.
I didn't know that that mattered.
It seemed like it didn't.
We lost.
Uh-huh.
Mm-hmm.
Like, I didn't know anything about football
until the Saints got into--
they went to the Super Bowl, and I'm from New Orleans.
So then I got into it.
And since I got into it, I'm, like, obsessed with football.
Oh, so you're saying this is my year?
Yeah.
You can, because it's the Rams, get into it now.
Why are we called the Rams?
I've never seen a ram in Los Angeles.
Right.
No.
They don't usually--
That's not the point.
No.
It's not--
OK.
--like, you know-- so you're not into football
but you're very athletic?
I am, but this is, like, a new thing.
I was super not athletic.
I was like, can you open this water for me, person?
And then like a year ago, I just like--
[HULK GROAN] I just got really, like, beefy.
When you got cast in the movie?
That's right.
So I trained for nine months, and then
was able to do crazy things.
I could deadlift 225 pounds by the end of it.
Wow.
Yeah!
Yes.
Now who did you train with here?
Jason Walsh was my trainer out here.
That's my trainer.
I mean, I haven't seen him in months but that's my trainer.
I was going to say, I feel like I've never seen you at the gym.
Well, he's my trainer but I just haven't been there lately.
I feel like he's my trainer then now.
He might be your trainer--
Right.
--more so than mine, but, Jason, I'll be back.
I will.
I knew that.
That's why I asked, because he gets everybody
in shape for movies.
He's like the guy.
He is the guy.
Yeah.
So the ongoing joke with him, because Captain Marvel
can move planets, so I was like, I just
want to be able to push your car.
If I could just push your Jeep, then I'll
feel like I was ready.
And so it happened.
There was a day where I did it.
So you pushed his Jeep--
Yeah.
--up the alley?
Yeah.
That is his Jeep.
Yeah.
It's got a full tank of gas in it too, just for the record.
By the way--
Because that's-- and a person!
And there's a person in it.
I was going to say, to be able to put on the brakes in case
you decide--
In case I got run over.
All right, so let's talk about Captain Marvel.
So you are--
OK.
What's happening in this movie?
What are you doing, besides incredible things
hanging from a train?
So my hair's on fire.
That's one aspect that comes in much later.
You might be wondering why my hair's on fire.
That's part of the origin story.
The thing about Carol is she was a-- can I say bad ass on TV?
You can say bad ass.
OK.
Yeah, she's a bad ass on TV.
I'm not because I question whether or not
I can say bad ass on TV.
Right.
Yeah.
But she was an Air Force pilot, and was breaking crazy records,
and then this insane thing happens
to her which gives her powers.
And this film is about her learning about her past,
figuring out who she is, and owning herself,
which is my favorite part.
Yeah.
Well, that's a great message, learning who you are
and owning who you are.
I mean, it's kind of the whole thing.
Yeah.
There's an action figure here, and you have a kitty cat.
First of all, this is not how you hold a cat.
I don't know why they decided that that's the best way.
It's like literally just its back leg and the cat's
balancing itself.
And then-- oh, no.
Oh, no!
Oh, no.
That's--
She lost her backpack.
That's it.
Yeah.
So that is a cat in a backpack.
This is you?
Ish?
Uh-huh.
Yeah.
All right.
The idea is that it's me.
I'm not sure--
And do you have a cat?
Was that even--
[SCREAMING]
That was the time to punch someone.
That was your moment.
He ran away too fast.
It was fast.
I hate cats.
Just because of that, maybe.
That's not true.
I love Jellicle cats, but that did not
look like a Jellicle cat.
All right, we have to take a break.
And--
Yeah.
I need to catch my breath, OK?
Yes.
