Wasn't it just last month we learned that Hayley Atwell wouldn't be returning as Peggy Carter in Captain America: The Winter Soldier? Although a disappointing move, it made sense with Cap now in the present and Emily VanCamp likely to play Carter's niece, Sharon. But maybe it was all misdirection on her part, because Collider spoke to Stanley Tucci who said she'd be making a cameo....
Tucci: "I know that Hayley is going back to do a flashback scene, but I have not been asked."
Only a flashback? I was hoping to see an older version of Peggy who runs into Cap still in his prime. Tucci also refers to his character, Dr. Erskine, who was one of the best parts of the first film. Sad that he won't be coming back. Then again, he could be wrong or misleading us. Maybe both he and Atwell are making brief appearances? Maybe neither?
Whatever the case, neither would have a role that amounts to much. Starring Chris Evans, Sebastian Stan, Samuel L. Jackson, Anthony Mackie, Frank Grillo, Toby Jones, Scarlett Johansson, and Cobie Smulders, Captain America: The Winter Soldier opens on April 4th 2014.
