Thor's Valkyrie Tessa Thompson is “hopeful” for an all-female MCU movie
The freaking awesome Thompson made our hearts grow three sizes with her latest red carpet chat.

"There's an interest - they're doing Captain Marvel, they're doing a Black Widow - there's an interest in having women at the forefront of this phase. I feel like it's hopeful, who knows."
