Brie Larson is front and center in one of the biggest superhero sagas of all time; however, she says hardly anyone gives her a second glance in real life. With major titles like Captain Marvel, Avengers: Endgame, and Fast X in her filmography, her face is familiar to millions across the globe. Yet, in her day-to-day routine, the Oscar-winning actor slips by mostly undetected.

So how does someone that famous pull off near-total anonymity? According to Larson, it’s not a trick — it’s simply the way she lives, dressed down and grounded in reality.

Brie Larson Reveals She’s Rarely Recognized Off-Screen

Brie Larson, who won the Academy Award for Room and went on to lead massive blockbusters, recently spoke about why she rarely draws attention in public spaces. On comedian Mike Birbiglia’s Working It Out podcast, she shared, “If I’m checking out at the grocery store, I don’t get recognized. I get, ‘Are you friends with my cousin?’ I am the classic face of ‘friend of your cousin.’”

Larson began acting early. She enrolled in theater classes at the American Conservatory Theater in San Francisco when she was just six. Her early years in entertainment included roles on the sitcom Raising Dad alongside Bob Saget, plus appearances in teen films such as Sleepover and 13 Going on 30.

Her career picked up speed as she moved into bigger projects. She landed roles in films like 21 Jump Street, Trainwreck, and Scott Pilgrim vs. the World. But her major shift came in 2015 with Room, where her rendition earned her an Oscar for Best Actress.

That recognition eventually led to her casting as Carol Danvers in Captain Marvel. The 2019 film crossed the billion-dollar mark globally, securing her spot in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. She returned for Avengers: Endgame and The Marvels and also joined Fast & Furious in Fast X.

Despite the fame, Larson says she’s often mistaken for someone else or overlooked entirely. She recalled once being with another actor who was surrounded by fans asking for autographs — and she went unnoticed.

In an interview with Harper’s Bazaar, she explained her approach to staying grounded: “I don’t wear super-flashy clothes when I’m out in the world because I want to stay in reality.” She added, “My biggest fear is to not be in reality. It matters so much to me. I want to be in reality. I love reality. It’s all I want. I’m very good at confrontation in my relationships because I want to be in reality. I want to be in what’s as close to what’s true as possible.”

For Larson, keeping things real is less about staying hidden and more about choosing how she wants to be seen.
