How Did Marvel Navigate the Choppy Waters of Time-Travel Confusion?

According to Atwell, the producer clarified the removal of the photo was intended to avoid definitively linking Peggy to a particular spouse, as Marvel remained undecided on the character’s ultimate partner. This choice reflects the uncertainty surrounding Peggy’s romantic future, allowing for potential narrative flexibility in determining her eventual husband within the Marvel universe.

The choice to give that framed photograph a vacation from the spotlight was truly a stroke of genius. It’s like they wrapped it up in a cozy emotional blanket to keep Steve Rogers’ Avengers: Endgame ending safe and snug. Remember, in Captain America: The Winter Soldier, they already spilled the beans about Peggy’s marital status and family tree. But by keeping all that under wraps till the Endgame, they prevented any potential eyebrow-raising moments.

Imagine if we had seen Peggy’s family tree right off the bat. That could’ve given critics a buffet of things to chew on. If we had all the puzzle pieces upfront, there’d be debates left and right about whether he was accidentally erasing Peggy’s kids from existence while hopping through timelines. But thanks to that clever decision, we’re all free to just enjoy the heartwarming ending without getting tied up in a time-traveling knot of confusion.
