Hayley Atwell expressed frustration over Captain Carter's brief and brutal death in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, calling the scene a disservice to the character.
Hayley Atwell recently opened up about her frustrations with Captain Carter's abrupt exit in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Speaking at a convention in London, IGN reports that the Marvel actress felt deeply disappointed by how her character was handled during the violent Illuminati showdown against the Scarlet Witch.
While the scene served its narrative purpose of establishing the sheer terror of Wanda's corrupt power, Atwell noted that reducing Captain Carter to a quick gag where she gets killed by her own shield felt like a disservice. She even tried pitching alternative fight choreography on set, but her creative suggestions were ultimately brushed aside by the production team.
Atwell was particularly bothered by having her character echo Steve Rogers' iconic line right before meeting a swift end. With Captain Carter's return looming on the horizon, players and fans alike are watching to see if future Marvel projects will give the hero a more meaningful role on screen.
