  "account": "Peggy Carter's death in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness has been criticized by her actress Hayley Atwell as a major disappointment. Atwell expressed her frustration at the convention For the Love of Fantasy & Sci-Fi in London, stating that she had attempted to propose different ways to portray her character's fight to the death with Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch, but her suggestions were disregarded. In the movie, Carter is depicted as Captain Carter, wielding a shield with a Union Jack logo, and tragically meets her demise alongside other heroes. Atwell lamented that her character's death was merely a \"frisbee\" to illustrate Wanda's strength. Despite a brief moment of quoting Steve Rogers' line \"I could do this all day,\" the scene ultimately left her feeling that Captain Carter was reduced to a \"lame\" character. Atwell hopes to see Carter reappear in Avengers: Doomsday, but the outcome of her character remains uncertain.",
