Hayley Atwell says she wouldn't mind returning as Captain Peggy Carter for Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars.

"I would love that,” Atwell told Den of Geek. "There are so many things that she could do, there's so much more I feel I can bring to a character because I've developed as time's gone on.

Despite what it says on Atwell's Wikipedia, the actor has not been officially confirmed to return to the MCU for Avengers: Doomsday. However, it's quite possible that she will make an appearance – but she's keeping it under wraps for now (as Marvel actors tend to do). Atwell made her MCU at Agent Peggy Carter in Captain America: The First Avenger. Her last appearance was in Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness, as Captain Carter, but she was only on screen for a moment before Scarlet Witch cut her in half with her own shield.
