Comments Blaine: Why does Amazon list the key actors as Tim Daly, Geoffrey Arend, and Erich Bergen when the undeniable star is Tea Leoni? Not just performance, but she’s the TITLE CHARACTER.

  1. Anyone curious, it’s DC’s Captain Marvel, not Marvel’s Captain Marvel in the first one. Or, probably Fawcett’s Captain Marvel that later was DC’s and later still was Shazam.
