The image hints at Captain Marvel's origin as an Air Force pilot before she receives super powers and ventures off into outer space.

"Check out the new poster and tune-in to @ESPN's Monday Night Football to see the brand new trailer for Marvel Studios' #CaptainMarvel," Marvel said.

The first trailer for Captain Marvel was released in September. The clip featured Larson crash landing on earth in the '90s with no memory before she is recruited by Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) to fend off an alien invasion.

Captain Marvel, from directors Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck, is set to arrive in theaters on March 8. Jude Law, Gemma Chan, Annette Bening and Ben Mendelsohn -- as the film's villain -- also star. Djimon Hounsou and Lee Pace will be featured, reprising their villainous roles from Guardians of the Galaxy.
