The Marvel Cinematic Universe has been seriously impressive in bringing a whole host of comic book superheroes to the screen over the past decade – the only problem is the overwhelming majority of those have been men. While Natasha Romanoff was a founding member of the Avengers, there won’t be a woman-led solo film until 2019’s Captain Marvel.
Recently, though, we heard something that gave us some hope that the MCU would be bolstering the role of its female heroes in the future. That’s because studio president Kevin Feige recalled the time on set when a band of Avengers actresses, led by Thor: Ragnarok‘s Tessa Thompson, pitched him an all-female team-up movie.
It’s far from being confirmation that anything like this is in the works, of course, but it’s such a great idea that it’s fun to contemplate. It’s not like there aren’t any comics to draw on, either. In fact, Thompson suggested using 1970s team the Lady Liberators as a basis, but a smarter move would actually be adapting the more modern A-Force team.
So, what heroines could feature in such a movie? Disregarding the obvious answers – e.g. Black Widow, Captain Marvel, Wasp, Scarlet Witch and Valkyrie –Â we feel that these 9 other warrior women could easily be introduced into the MCU in a possible A-Force film.
