Goose the Cat from Captain Marvel/The Marvels (Cat)
Goose the Cat, also known as Goose the Flerkin, is a kitty character from the Captain Marvel and The Marvels movies. While looking like a cute ginger tabby, Goose is actually a dangerous alien creature known as a “Flerken,” that happen to look like your average house kitty. After being cared for by Captain Marvel (Brie Larson), Goose is eventually adopted by Nick Fury ( Samuel L. Jackson). And Fury was nice enough to adopt him even though a scratch from Goose is how he got his iconic eyepatch!
In Captain Marvel, Goose was played by a cat actor named Reggie, with cat actors Rizzo, Gono, and Archie as backups. In the followup, The Marvels, Goose is played by a cat named Tango.
