A new piece of What If…? fan art imagines Hayley Atwell playing Captain Carter in a live-action movie. Based on the comic series What If, Disney+’s fourth series taking place within the Marvel Cinematic Universe is an animated anthology series exploring alternate versions of key events and, in turn, characters. The show features many Marvel actors voicing their respective roles including Mark Ruffalo, Chris Hemsworth, Tom Hiddleston, Paul Bettany, Don Cheadle, Paul Rudd, Michael Douglas, Karen Gillan, Sebastian Stan, and Hayley Atwell.

Atwell’s Agent Peggy Carter first appeared in Captain America: The First Avenger (2011), a member of the British military working with the Strategic Scientific Reserve on the Super Soldier project. In that film, Carter witnessed Steve Rogers get administered the Super Soldier Serum and become Captain America. She also serves as his primary love interest throughout his entire MCU arc. In What If…?’s first episode, “What If...Captain Carter Were the First Avenger,” Peggy makes a decision that leads to her being administered the serum instead of Steve and becoming Captain Carter. It has already been confirmed that Captain Carter will be a recurring character What If…?—a series that will likely tie into the live-action films.

What If…? writer A.C. Bradley and director Bryan Andrews have both expressed interest in seeing Atwell reprise the role of Captain Carter in a live-action film. In addition to appearing in the films, Atwell has played the Scared Timeline’s Peggy Carter in the Agent Carter spin-off series—which has its own devoted fanbase despite its cancellation. Any live-action Captain Carter spin-off would certainly land with audiences. That said, it’s very possible What If…? characters will appear in the live-action MCU.

While What If…? is an anthology series, it will have an overarching narrative tying into the MCU’s multiverse. As a Phase Four series premiering after Loki, What If…? capitalizes on the multiversal concepts established in the former. The powers that be have even said that everything in this latest animated series is canon and is as important to the big picture as anything that’s come before. What If…? is narrated by Uatu the Watcher (Jeffery Wright), a celestial being that’s supposed to be an impartial observer of the multiverse; however, the character famously breaks his one rule in Marvel lore. Trailers and other promotional material have teased the Guardians of the Multiverse, a team including Captain Carter. Whether or not that team aids other heroes in Spider-Man: No Way Home, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantummaina or Loki season 2 remains to be seen.
