The gag reel shows off the bond between Larson and Vellani, whose Ms. Marvel character is depicted as a major fan of Captain Marvel. Back in May 2023, Vellani told PEOPLE that sheviews Larson as something of a “big sister.”
“We’re close and then she’s honestly an older sister at this point,” she said of their friendship at the time. “But yeah, I think she’s really taught me a lot about how to take care of myself and the importance of self-care mentally and physically, and I really value our friendship.”
