One of the new characters in the upcoming movie is like Indiana Jones with a pilot license. DeWanda Wise is best known for her roles on The Harder They Fall and She's Gotta Have It. The rest of the characters are better off for it because she is well-plugged into everything and has a heart of gold. It's a bonus that she's fun to watch.

In the below video, you can watch Wise talk about how she was able to craft the character to be as formidable and awesome as she is.

There is little doubt that Wise will break out when the movie opens. That could have happened a long time ago.

DeWanda Wise was the first choice to play Maria Rambeau, best friend of Carol Danvers, in the movie. However, she was forced to leave the role due to scheduling conflicts with her show. Lynch has appeared in a number of other movies as the mythos of the Rambeau family continues to build towards the sequel, The Marvels. In our talk, Wise set the record straight on what happened and how she was able to open the door for the movie. You can watch below.

When the world is introduced to the character of Kayla Watts in the upcoming movie, it will become clear that she is playing a more exciting character than the one Wise was disappointed with.
