Brie Larson's dream came true thanks to Marvel and Disneyland
On Jimmy Kimmel Live Wednesday, Brie Larson spoke about the new Captain Marvel ride at Disneyland Paris, and what it means to her. Larson grew up a huge fan of Disneyland, so not just having a ride based on her character’s namesake, but also getting to go on it, was truly special.
“I saw that they’ve got a ride, an Avengers ride including Captain Marvel, at Disneyland in Paris,” Kimmel said. Larson responded by singing, “It’s my dream come true.” “Is it really your dream come true?” Kimmel asked. Larson replied, “Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.”
For her YouTube channel, Larson recorded her visit to check out the Avengers Campus at the theme park earlier this summer. She got to go on the Captain Marvel ride and even got emotional, and her family and friends were there to share in the experience.
“My family came out, my friends came out, because they know I’m such a Disneyland fan,” Larson said, “and so all of them were like, there’s no person that this would be, like, a bigger deal for than me.”
