With the next Marvel Studios film, Captain Marvel , about to release in theaters fans are wondering if the Brie-Larson-led flick will have a post-credits scene. Reports say that it actually has two.
Multiple reports have confirmed that Captain Marvel will have a midcredits scene, which airs after the starring cast credits, and a post-credits scene. The second post-credits scene comes at the very end of all the credits.

Captain Marvel stars Brie Larson as Carol Danvers, a former pilot who receives alien abilities but loses her memory in the process. Taken in by the Kree, Danvers joins an intergalactic force to fight a war between the Kree and the shape-shifting Skrull.
