While I don’t see Captain Marvel having a bright future, I do think that future films will need to feature new faces. Just not Brie Larson.

The filmmakers are implying that the SJW activism messaging of Captain Marvel is what they intend to carry forward into the next generation of Marvel movies. Get woke, go broke will put an end to the franchise pretty quickly once they roll that out.

And lest you think Disney won't make such a stupid business decision for such a huge tent pole franchise, I give you Exhibit A: Star Wars.

Imagine the studio conversation:

Executive #1: "We have a great thing going here. These movies are basically making a billion dollars a piece. It's unbelievable! We can churn these babies out and just watch the money roll in!"
Executive #2: "All we have to do is avoid doing something stupid that will turn our fans away."
Executive #1: "Hey, I have an idea!"
Executive #2: "What is it?"
Executive #1: "Let's go all SJW just like Star Wars!"
Executive #2: "I like it!"

The four Star Wars movies released by Disney have made almost 5 billion dollars at the box office. Three of those movies were the #1 movie in their years.
