To effectively prove just how herculean Captain Marvel was , Avengers : Endgameused her to institute Iron Man and Nebula home after floating in distance for three workweek on the cad of Thanos ' walkover . At that point , the duo was start to come to damage that they would die in the middle of nowhereuntil Captain Marvel rescued Iron Man and Nebulaand hale their whole ship back to Earth . It was a great scene , but it robbed Tony of what could ’ve been another expectant moment for him in the film . AsAvengers : Endgamerevealed his predicament followingAvengers : Infinity War , the film exhibit him and Nebula trying to fix the spacecraft . The imagery and the situation evoked parallels of his time making Mark I in the cave in Afghanistan .

AlthoughAvengers : Endgameis universally beloved , there are some scene about it that the filmmaking could have done better . That let in questions about how Tony was able to quickly solve prison term travel . Granted that the film was press with time and the MCU had long - established the character ’s genius , seeing him figure out how to make the Benatar work would have been a big reminder of his brilliance .
After her rescue of Tony and Nebula , followed bythe dying of Thanosin his retirement garden , Captain Marvel would be a non - factor inAvengers : Endgameuntil she returned for the final fight . The Russos had to take her out of the par to make certain that she was n’t function as a deus ex machina , give how powerful she was . As a fairly new character reference in the MCU , Marvel Studios has metre to highlight her accomplishment and art moving frontward — something that they ca n’t do any longer for Iron Man .
