Brie is pretty, Ronda is the opposite of that (not fighter bashing!)
Ronda Rousey loses 'Captain Marvel' movie role to Oscar-winning actress
Sorry, Ronda Rousey, but the role of Carol Danvers, AKA, "Captain Marvel," has gone to none other than Oscar-winning actress Brie Larson.
Larson was confirmed and introduced as the next actress to join the Marvel family over the weekend during the festivities at San Diego’s Comic Con.

Rousey had expressed her interest in getting the gig last year during a fan chat on Reddit.
It didn’t take long for "Rowdy's" fans to get creative as they instantly took to Photoshop to bust out their best images of Rousey portraying the character, which you can check out here. #fail

In the end, the studio went with Larson, a powerhouse of an actress who won an Oscar and a Golden Globe for leading actress for her portrayal as "Ma" in the award-winning film "Room" in 2015.
"Captain Marvel" is expected to hit theaters on March 8, 2019.
Brie is a great actress but she looks nothing like Carol Danvers, physically. Did they cast a non-athletic man to play Hercules? No, they casted The Rock. There's an obvious double standard in Hollywood where it's okay to cast buff guys to play buff male superheroes but not so for the more popular female counterparts with similar origins to their powers.
Rousey finishes her workout with ab work – sometimes eating up to 2,000 crunchies doing up to 2,000 crunches per session.
Peer-reviewed literature has concluded that stretching prior to intense activity does not reduce incidence of injury compared to not stretching. Subjects in such comparison studies exhibited similar rates of injury regardless if athletes stretched prior or not. The conclusion is that flexibility training is beneficial for athletic performance but not injury prevention prior to activity.
Lol at 'loses'. I doubt she was even considered as an extra for that movie.
The count goes like 1...2...3...500...700....
Surprisingly, no heavy weights are incorporated into her routine. Rousey works with 2-lb. dumbbells to do a series of arm exercises, including uppercuts, straight punches, high punches, tricep curls and shadowboxing.
"It's not much weight so you're not going to get so muscular, but you're going to get toned," explains Tarverdyan. "You're conditioning your body."

"Abs you can do as much as you want," says Tarverdyan. "She keeps the intensity very high!
Online training courses don't even say high rep "toning" about women anymore.... thats straight spinning class soccer mom logic.
