As per the filmAvengers: Infinity War, after the credits were rolled, there was an end credit scene where Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) hits the distress button on a pager just as he melts into ash. The pager displayed a yellow eight-pointed star on a red and blue field. Marvel fans comprehended it as a signal for Captain Marvel, who would appear in her movie the upcoming year.
In the scene, otherAvengersare seen trying to investigate the mysterious pager when Carol Danvers returns to Earth, in response to Fury’s distress message.
Brie Larson’s character was later seen inAvengers: Endgame, where she saves Iron Man from dying in a malfunctioned craft, drifting into a deep space.

The audience was left confused with the last-minute entry of Captain Marvel inAvengers: Endgameand saving Iron Man. As per the writers, this was an untold part of the story. She did not have a chance encounter with Downey Jr.’s character in space.
As per Joe Russo, Carol Danvers finding Iron Man was not a mere accident (viaScreenRant),
“The missing narrative, of course, is that she came to Earth, met the Avengers, was brought up to speed on what was happening and that there’s some sort of homing beacon on that ship that she tracks, and brings the two of them back to Earth.”
As per the story, Captain Marvel got the page from Fury. She went to Earth, and theAvengerstold her that Iron Man was lost in space. Rocket, the onlyGuardian of the Galaxycharacter left alive, tipped her on the Benatar’s homing beacon.
Apart from saving Iron Man, Captain Marvel does not have a significant role in the film. She spent most of her time in the off-world, helping other planets. She was not supposed to return until the final battle, where she punched a hole through a spaceship. She does notplay any part in the decisive death blow by Thanos.
