Laurie Hernandez completed a 'Hamilton'-inspired floor routine in a Captain Marvel leotard during her first gymnastics meet in 5 years

• Laurie Hernandez — who won Olympic gold in 2016 — competed for the 1st time in 5 years.
• She wore a Captain Marvel-inspired leotard during a floor routine set to the "Hamilton" soundtrack.
• Hernandez earned shout-outs from Brie Larson and Leslie Odom Jr. for her performance.

Laurie Hernandez is back.

The 20-year-old gymnast returned to the mat this weekend for her first official competition since stealing hearts as a member of the Team USA "Final Five" squad that won gold at the 2016 Rio Olympics. In her first performance in nearly five years, Hernandez suited up in a Captain Marvel-inspired leotard and completed her floor routine to the "Hamilton" soundtrack.

As "The Room Where It Happens" played in the background, Hernandez flipped and danced her way to a 12.05 score in the event, good for an 11th-place finish in the floor exercise. And after the USA Gymnastics Winter Cup in Indianapolis wrapped up, the noted theater fan shared her routine on Twitter and asked for feedback from "Hamilton" creator Lin Manuel Miranda and actor Leslie Odom Jr. - who sang "The Room Where It Happens" as Aaron Burr in the original cast.

Odom Jr. was quick to respond, writing on Twitter that Hernandez "Murda'd it!" and was "So damn impressive" just a few hours after Hernandez initially shared the clip.

The "Hamilton" star wasn't the only celebrity showing Hernandez love after her first performance in 1,657 days. Brie Larson - the Academy Award-winning actress who played the titular role in "Captain Marvel" - offered Hernandez her "formal stamp of approval" after the gymnast tagged her in an Instagram post.

"Watching and wishing you strength in your return!" Larson added.

She also promised to play video games with Hernandez once it becomes safe to do so:

Hernandez finished the meet in 23rd-place, including a fifth-place finish on the balance beam in addition to her 13th-place finish on the floor. She opted out of the vault and uneven bars in the competition.

Though she already has a gold medal from the team all-around and a silver medal from her 2016 individual performance on the beam, Hernandez is now ramping up for more challenging competitions over the next several months with the hopes of qualifying for the Olympics this summer. But with a crowded field vying against her for just four roster spots, securing a bid to Tokyo will undoubtedly be an uphill battle.
