Late night: Five guests to be excited for this week – March 4, 2019

Brie Larson on Jimmy Kimmel Live!
Jimmy Kimmel Live! starts off the week on a super high note. The first guest of the week will be Captain Marvel star Brie Larson when she stops by on Monday, March 4.
Larson, an Academy Award winning actress, is primed to become the next face of the Marvel Cinematic Universe when Captain Marvel hits theaters this Friday. As with any Marvel movie, hype has been building for months now. Box office projections also suggest that audiences are excited to see Larson’s take on the superhero.
Last Night On had hoped that Larson would be taking another turn hosting Saturday Night Live to promote her movie. That seems unlikely at this point but isn’t impossible. However, Jimmy Kimmel Live! is the next best place to go.
The late night show gets the benefit of being a Disney production just like the Avengers movies. That means that Jimmy Kimmel Live! has always been the first stop on the late night promotional tour and Captain Marvel will be no different.
Larson has been on Jimmy Kimmel’s late night show before to talk about her obsession with The Bachelor. Expect that topic to be brought up again considering the two-part finale kicks off Monday night as well.
