WithAvengers: Endgamegiving us so much to digest and theorize, one such spectacle of a moment was when all the female superhero members of theMarvel Cinematic Universeteamed up to assist fellow female superhero Captain Marvel, aka Carol Danvers, as a way of teasing the comic-book team-up collaborationA-Forcewhich sees almost every female superhero band together as a subsidiary faction of the Avengers.
This moment comes after the arrival of Captain Marvel, aka Carol Danvers, in the final battle againstInfinity Saga’s main villain Thanos where almost every hero of the past 11 years come together to stand against the mad titan.
TheA-Forceteaser is made up of Captain Marvel, Okoye, Shuri, Scarlet Witch, Valkyrie, Gamora, Nebula, Wasp, and Pepper Potts aka Rescue.
With this being the first time fans see the MCU’s version of Pepper Potts assume the Rescue persona as well as a past-version of Zoe Saldana’s Gamora arriving from 2014 and seemingly disappearing in the aftermath of the battle, it is unknown what the future holds for the all-female team. However, fans are certainly wanting more of the team-up after this tease.
It has been noted since the beginning of the Marvel Cinematic Universe that the female representation, particularly in the superhero aspect, has been lacking with Scarlett Johansson’s Black Widow being the only female superhero to be portrayed for the first six years up until 2014’sGuardians of the Galaxywith the introduction of Zoe Saldana’s Gamora and Karen Gillan’s Nebula and the following year’sAvengers: Age of Ultronwith Elizabeth Olsen’s Scarlet Witch.
With 2017’sWonder Womanand 2019’sCaptain Marvel, the demand for female superheroes is a trend that resonates with the box office. However, plans for any future movies centering around female superheroes are few and far between with only 2019’sWonder Woman 1984, the as of yet undatedBlack Widowsolo movie and the 2020Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn)being the only female-led movies on the superhero horizon.
Superhero movies have become more inclusive in recent years with movies such asWonder Woman,Black Panther,Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, andCaptain Marveladding both box office gross and minority representation to the blockbuster movie market.
However, a female-led superhero team-up movie has still yet to be released, withBirds of Preynot being classed as a superhero movie due to the starring role of Harley Quinn notoriously known as a supervillain or anti-hero.
With theA-Forceteaser present inAvengers: Endgamefans are petitioning for an all-female Avengers movie to be present in Marvel’s upcoming Phase 4 projects.
