With the first season of the show doing wonders in its own right, Marvel’s What If…? Season 2 has doubled down on the events that are random and based purely on the possibilities of the Multiverse. The show’s focal point thus far has been Hayley Atwell, who portrays the role of Captain Carter in the series.
With her role in the series becoming increasingly recurring and integral to the show’s progression, it seems like she’s the main driving force for the events that transpire in every reality recreated for the series. Seeing this trend, speculations have popped up suggesting that the MCU may be gearing her up for her entry in Secret Wars alongside Captain America.
Hayley Atwell May Make Her Entry Into The MCU Again As Captain Carter
Marvel Studios has been opening the possibilities for absolutely anything to happen in the main timeline of the MCU, which means interconnected stories on a Multiversal level that will influence each other for the final showdown. Among them, What If…? is an enigmatic offer by the franchise where possibilities are endless and different from each other completely.

Among the key figures that have made recurring appearances in the show, Hayley Atwell‘s Captain Carter seems to be one of the most integral parts of it. From her entry in the first season, she has created waves across the Multiverse as the character, and Season 2 has signified and bolstered her presence even more.
Thus, seeing Captain Carter create ripples and long-lasting changes in many iconic events that took place in the main timeline, fans started to believe that there may be more to her role than what we are currently witnessing.

Considering every show and major film made under the banner of the MCU has been stated to affect the narrative in one way or the other, Captain Carter’s actions cannot be ignored, especially if she may become part of the main timeline in Avengers: Secret Wars. Since the last film of the Multiverse Saga is stated to be the epic showdown of reality-defying proportions, it isn’t too far-fetched for Atwell’s character.
Along with that, rumors also suggest that Chris Evans may make his return as Captain America in the MCU for the last film of Phase 6, which sits perfectly in line for a truly spectacular Captain Duo team-up, something that is sure to make the fans go wild.

We have already seen Atwell hold Captain Carter’s shield in one reality in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, where she, unfortunately, met her end. But Agent Carter from the animated MCU series is still alive and experienced when it comes to the possibilities of the Multiverse, which makes the likelihood of her entry into the main timeline all the more plausible.
