“	Captain Marvel, the annihilator. You took everything from me. And now I'm returning the favor.	„
	~ Dar-Benn to Captain Marvel and her most famous quote.

Kree Supremor Dar-Benn is the main antagonist of the 2023 Marvel Cinematic Universe superhero film The Marvels, the sequel to the 2019 film Captain Marvel, as well as the 2022 Disney+ miniseries Ms. Marvel.

She is a Kree revolutionary, former Starforce operative, and Accuser who is bent on restoring Hala, the Kree homeworld, back to its former glory after it fell desolate in the aftermath of a civil war started after the Supreme Intelligence's defeat by Carol Danvers/Captain Marvel and Ronan the Accuser's defeat by Guardians of the Galaxy. Using one of the Quantum Bands, Dar-Benn begins creating wormholes across space to siphon other planets of their resources, prompting Captain Marvel, Ms. Marvel (Kamala Khan) and Monica Rambeau to team up to stop her.

She was portrayed by Zawe Ashton in her first villainous role.

History[]

Early Life[]

Dar-Benn was one of the many Kree living on the planet of Hala and she was even present during Captain Marvel's battle with the Supreme Intelligence. After Captain Marvel destroyed the Supreme Intelligence, Hala went into crisis and began to die. It is here where Dar-Benn rose to power, gaining support from the Kree population. Eventually, she rose to the rank of Accuser.

The Marvels[]

Dar-Benn went to retrieve the two bangles from a distant planet. When she found out that only one bangle was buried on the planet, she became enraged. One of her soldiers told her that the bangle must be located on a different world, and Dar-Benn questioned where this might be.

Dar-Ben then traveled to the Skrull refugee planet, where she planned to steal its atmosphere using the bangle. She had a negotiation meeting with the Kree, though it was interrupted by Captain Marvel and Kamala Kahn. After this, Dar-Benn opened a portal and started transferring the planet's atmosphere to Hala. While the Marvels tried to save the Skrulls, there were still several deaths. Dar-Benn then returned to Hala and told the other Kree of her victory.

Dar-Benn then went to the ocean planet Aladna to steal its ocean, this time accompanied by a Kree fleet. She briefly engaged in a battle with an Aladnan army. Despite the Marvels' efforts, Dar-Benn was once again successful.

Dar-Benn's final plot had her steal the sun from the Earth. This time she engaged in a physical confrontation with the Marvels. Despite her bangle, she could not overcome the three heroes, and she was defeated. Kamala suggested to Dar-Benn that Captain Marvel use her powers to reignite Hala's sun, instead of having Dar-Benn steal the sun from Earth. Dar-Benn seemed to agree, but it was only a trick to catch the team off-guard. She then started taking the sun, but it proved too much for her, and she disintegrated.

Personality[]

One of Dar-benn's most prominent traits is her jingoistic attitude towards the Kree. She has excessive pride in the planet and is even willing to destroy civilizations that have wronged the Kree. She is also extremely vengeful, as she tries to destroy Earth just to spite Captain Marvel. However, Dar-Benn is a vengeful person. Despite this, Dar-Benn is not a purely evil individual. She genuinely cares about restoring her planet and is even willing to die to do so.

Trivia[]

Unlike her mainstream counterpart, the Marvel Cinematic Universe version of Dar-Benn is female rather than male like he is in the source material. This not only makes her the twentieth MCU character to have their gender swapped, but the seventh MCU villain to have a different gender to that of the comics, following Fenris Wolf, Ghost, Flag-Smasher, Taskmaster, Sprite and General Dox.
Dar-Benn is the second main MCU villain to be an Accuser, following Ronan the Accuser.
In real life, Dar-Benn's actress Zawe Ashton is married to Tom Hiddleston, who played Loki Laufeyson and some of his variants in other MCU media.
Dar-Benn is the fourth female main antagonist in the Marvel Cinematic Universe after Hela, Ghost, and Scarlet Witch. She was followed by Cassandra Nova.
