  3. I love her in Strange, it was awesome to see her as Captain Carter in a movie after watching her in what if! The line “I can do this all day” was perfection to me. I wish she realized how her appearance in it made this movie experience so much more exciting and intense because there’s history behind it. I also wish we got to see her more as Captain Carter but I’’ really happy she was in Strange.

  8. Huge fan of her and had no idea she was in the new Mission Impossible! I do have to say, her bit about saying they need to do more with Captain Carter…do they? She might be a bit bummed about Multiverse of Madness, but her role was a cameo. I don't think she/the character got screwed or anything, a cameo is exactly that: a small, walk-on role. That scene was a glimpse at one of many alternate universes, that's all.
    Between that and the What-If episode, I think Captain Carter as a concept has had its time in the MCU and any more would just be more of what we've already seen from Captain America with a Peggy Carter-coating. Maybe an animated spin-off with a few more episodes set in that What-If world at most, but other than that, I think there's so many more original Marvel heroines that haven't seen exposure to live action (or if they have, haven't been done justice. Looking at Pyslocke for example…) that deserve solid adaptations.
    So while I wish her the best career-wise, between the Agent Carter series, her multiple cameos throughout the MCU (Winter Solider, Endgame, Ant-Man, MoM) and her role in First Avenger, I think she's had a good amount of screentime and a solid impact on the MCU and it's time to wrap things up. She should definitely be in more stuff like Mission Imposssible though!

  13. I sometimes wonder if I was the only person who was super excited for that Captain Carter live action D+ show. It’s probably not happening anymore but I will forever hope that it happens. Seeing her in Dr Strange MoM in the full suit (before the unfortunate death) was so awesome

  15. I adored Captain Carter because Peggy is one of my favorite characters in the MCU, and I agree with Hayley. Peggy deserved better than how she ended up in Multiverse of Madness; the way the wrote her didn’t feel like Peggy. And that’s coming from someone who’s grown attached to the character over the years.

    And I LOVE that she’s hitting her second big breakout with MI8. Her character Grace was the star of the movie, at least to me. And I can see why she said Grace would be Peggy Carter’s little sister 😂. I can’t wait to see more of her in Part 2 🙏🏻.
