9 Characters Who Must Appear In An All-Female Marvel Movie

The Marvel Cinematic Universe has been seriously impressive in bringing in a whole host of comic book superheroes to the screen over the past decade - the only problem is the overwhelming majority of those have been men. While Natasha Romanoff was a founding member of the Avengers, for instance, there won't be a woman-led solo film until 2019's Captain Marvel.

As the co-founder of S.H.I.E.L.D., Peggy Carter is one of the mothers of the MCU, so any all-female movie would have to feature her. Plus, as the very first Marvel lady to lead her own TV series, she deserves a key role in bringing the MCU’s leading ladies together.

The problem is that Peggy Carter’s adventures are from a completely different time period from the rest of MCU. They couldn’t even CGI an elderly woman’s face onto Hayley Atwell like in Captain America: The Winter Soldier again as she died back in Captain America: Civil WarI guess we could settle for her niece, Sharon Carter AKA Agent 13, but she’s no replacement for Peggy herself. Sharon’s cool in the comics, but she hasn’t made much of an impression on screen as yet.

So, how about a flashback sequence, a la Atwell’s role in Ant-Man? Maybe it could be revealed that, along with setting up S.H.I.E.L.D., Peggy founded a covert team of highly-capable women? It would be fun to have the mostly boys club that is the Avengers having been beaten to the punch by their female counterparts.
