Hayley Atwell Returns as Peggy Carter for Avengers Films

Hayley Atwell is set to reprise her role as Peggy Carter in the upcoming Marvel films 'Avengers: Doomsday' and 'Avengers: Secret Wars,' marking a significant return for the character after a history of limited usage in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Atwell, who first appeared as Peggy Carter in 'Captain America: The First Avenger' and has since voiced the character in the animated series 'What If…?', expressed frustration over her brief and unceremonious cameo in 'Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.' The confirmation of her return comes after speculation and trade reports, with producers suggesting that Atwell's role could be more prominent this time, potentially serving as a pivotal character in the storylines involving multiple universes. Atwell's involvement hints at exciting developments for the future of the Marvel Universe, as fans anticipate a richer narrative for her character. Additionally, the Russo brothers are returning to direct 'Avengers: Doomsday,' which is set to begin filming soon. The specific plot details and release dates for these films remain under wraps.
