From Academy Award winner to the first female superhero in the Marvel Cinematic Universe with her own standalone film, it’s hard to imagine something Brie Larson can’t do. While the 29-year-old actress has been in the industry for over two decades, it seems she’s finally received the spotlight she deserves. And next on her list might be the most amazing achievement of them all to some. She wants to be a Jedi.

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Larson spoke all things Captain Marvel, and even managed to sneak in some Star Wars love. Explaining she got to hold co-star Samuel L. Jackson’s lightsaber prop from his role of Mace Windu in the prequel films, the actress admitted she now wants to be a Jedi. And to make things even better, the Star Wars official Twitter quickly responded to Larson’s wishes.

“The Force is definitely with you, Captain,” the Twitter account wrote, to which Larson replied, “Honored to be an intergalactic hero with you :).”

While this is obviously no confirmation Larson will ever appear in a Star Wars movie, we would consider it more likely with all the success the actress is seeing with Captain Marvel even ahead of its release, in the form of fan love and box office projections for instance.

Captain Marvel hits theaters on March 8. We’ll hope to see Larson take on another huge franchise next.
