You see the rumor that Jude Law may be playing Yon-Rogg rather than Mar-Vell? It makes total sense, but I hope it’s not true. It would be terrible to disassociate Mar-Vell from Carol’s origin.
Good Marvel characters- Bring Them Back!!!
I'm getting the sense that even if Mar-Vell is in it, he's not going to have much or anything to do with her origin.
I wouldn't mind that so much if I felt they were going to rely on things uniquely Carol's - things stemming from her X-Men/Binary storylines, for example - but I suspect they are going to plunder Mar-Vell's history whilst ignoring the man himself. That would be bad.
I wonder if they will show Carol going temporarily Binary from absorbing some type of energy? I would love to see that!
Other rumors say she’s going to be half Kree by birth. And that would suck.
Good Marvel characters- Bring Them Back!!!
In the comics, Nadia Pym is the biological daughter of Hank Pym and Maria Trovaya.
In the MCU, Hope van Dyne is the biological daughter of Hank Pym and Janet van Dyne.
This does not suck to me.
In the comics, Carol Danvers is the biological daughter of Marie Danvers and Joe Danvers.
If the 2019 movie reveals that the MCU Carol Danvers is the biological daughter of the MCU Marie Danvers and the MCU Captain Mar-Vell,
than that would not suck to me either Likewise if the MCU Carol Danvers' Kree name is revealed to be either 'Una' or 'Phyla-Vell'.
I'm starting to wondering if they're not simply going to cut out the origin-middleman and have "Carol" be 100% Kree, and the one and only, first of her name, Captain Marr-Vel...
It has been confirmed she's a Kree/Human hybrid in the movie already, but I wouldn't be surprised if she was indeed the first Captain Marvel of that universe.
Honestly, at this point I won't even be bothered if he is completely removed from her origin or is robbed from his title or whatever. They can do whatever they want with Carol; just give Mar-Vell a decent portrayal in the MCU. I don't want him to be that guy in the flashback who got killed within the first ten minutes of the movie. If they're not interested in telling Mar-Vell's story in Carol's movie, then let his story be told separately in some other production later on. There's so much more to this character than just being the guy who gave Carol her powers, so I hope his role is not reduced to that in the MCU.

The MCU Carol Danvers is not to be 100% Kree. The Kree/Human hybrid status is important in order to explain her so-called 'divine' destiny.
In the comics it is revealed by the comicbook character Supremor that within the comicbook character Carol Danvers are combined:
"The genetic heritage of the finest Kree warrior (Mar-Vell) ever born and the latent psionic talents common to all Terrans.
It is her destiny to become the mother to a race of New-Kree that no force in the universe can withstand."
Captain Marvel #4 Aug 1968
"The Alien and the Amphibian!"
In his hotel room on Earth, Mar-Vell laments over his conflict between his duties as a Kree soldier and his growing concern and care for the humans he may one day have to battle.
His reverie is interrupted by Hal, the nephew of Mr. Logan (the owner of the hotel who is currently in a coma).
Hal updates Mar-Vell on Mr. Logan's condition, and tells him that the Cape needs him to go to the base as soon as possible.
At the Cape, Carol Danvers expresses her inability to trust "Lawson" and continues to investigate his background,
while the launch control prepares to launch deadly bacteria into space to see how it will be effected by cosmic rays.
Meanwhile, deep in the ocean, the Sub-Mariner is speeding to New York to seek the aid of Reed Richards for assistance in locating the villain known as Destiny.
When the rocket is forced to crash in the ocean thanks to Yon-Rogg's machinations, the Cape sends out a ship to try and recover
the rocket before the deadly bacteria is released and infects people. Mar-Vell joins the ship in his guise of Lawson. When he gets there,
Mar-Vell is ordered by Yon-Rogg to prevent the humans from stopping the rocket from releasing the bacteria, as Yon-Rogg is hoping to test the humans' susceptibility to germ warfare.
With the arrival of the Sub-Mariner, Mar-Vell changes into his Kree uniform to battle the Sub-Mariner to prevent him from stopping the rocket from releasing the bacteria as well.
The battle is preconceived by those aboard the ship as though the Sub-Mariner is the aggressor and Captain Marvel as the hero trying to stop the bacteria,
when ironically it's the other way around. However, Mar-Vell allows the Sub-Mariner to "defeat" him so that Namor can disarm the bacteria.
When the rocket explodes, both men are thrown clear from it.
Mar-Vell leaves the scene allowing the Sub-Mariner to resume his course.
