Original 6 Avengers from "The Avengers":

Captain America (still male as Sam Wilson)

Black Widow (still female)

Hulk replaced by She-Hulk: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1...0/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0

Hawkeye replaced by Kate Bishop: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1...4/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0

Thor replaced by Jane Foster: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1...2/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0

Ironman replaced by Riri Williams: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1...6/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0

And lets not forget there is also forthcoming Ms Marvel https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1...4/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0

and "Echo" (whoever the hell that is): https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1...2/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0

I guess Disney and Marvel learned NOTHING from 2016 Ghostbusters

Ever since Disney removed their streaming content from everybody but their own streaming platform, we hardly see any Disney content, anymore, anyway. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I have already reached peak comic book movie saturation. This is the way it should die, hope it hurts.

Well, unlike Ghostbusters, most of the characters coexist, except for Iron Man. Just saying

Echo is the mute chick from the Hawkeye series. I wouldn't think her interesting enough to warrant her own series, but I guess we'll have to wait and see.

As for the rest, the only problems I have with all of it is that the majority of these women are ethnicities that don't reflect the characters from the comics and that we're being flooded with female heroes all at once. Like there weren't already plenty of strong female characters in the initial MCU movies.

groan,

I can't believe they think this is the thing to do.

Disney, trying to out-woke everyone in the industry, all at once!

So you're saying "twice as dumb" or "woke AND greedy"?

I didn't realize there were any still alive. I thought the Decepticons killed them all off.

It's not like dwd1985 is trying to present it. Yes, there are more women being introduced into the MCU. No, they're not replacing all the men with women, and only bringing in new female characters.

Hulk replaced by She-Hulk:

She-Hulk is an addition to Hulk, not a replacement. Bruce Banner will continue to be around in the MCU, and is rumored to play a big part in the upcoming Phase 5 plot. (Potentially the World War Hulk story arc, with Hulk as a primary antagonist.)

quote:

Hawkeye replaced by Kate Bishop

Clint Barton is semi-retired, but it's been hinted that he'll continue to make some appearances, just in a smaller role.

quote:

Thor replaced by Jane Foster:

Jane Foster does reportedly gain Thor's power in the upcoming film, but that is likely a temporary thing, like it was in the comics.

Or, there's a different comic storyline where Jane Foster gains Sif's powers, so it could be that instead.

Either way, Chris Hemsworth has confirmed that Love and Thunder is not the end of him as Thor.

And lets not forget there is also forthcoming Ms Marvel and "Echo"

You're leaving out the even more numerous forthcoming male Marvel series, though...

Daredevil Season 4 (male)
Loki Season 2 (male)
Moon Knight (male)
Secret Invasion (multiple leads, primarily Nick Fury - male)
Armor Wars/War Machine (male)
I Am Groot (male?)

Since they are fictional characters, who cares?

If you don't like them as women, don't watch. If enough people agree with you, Disney will turn them back into men faster than the Flash.

The Mouse cares only about profits.

You should watch the What If cartoon where they turn Agent Carter into the hulked out Captain England.

It’s a woke leftist’s wet dream cartoon.

MCU sucks. Besides the 1st Iron Man, I couldn't differentiate between any of them because they're all pretty much the same. Every single one of them have too much CGI, explosions and saving the world via a string of near impossible events aligning perfectly gets old and cheapens the experience the next 10 times they do it.

Now with all the PC pandering and "girl/minority power" BS they're pushing I couldn't care less about seeing any of their movies. My biggest complaint is that the MCU has no real competition because everything DC touches turns to shit with the Christian Bale Batman trilogy and Joker as the exceptions.

Holy shit.

Are female characters just not allowed? I don't understand what's even going on in this thread other than misrepresentation and overreaction of basically everything. That was ONE episode of what if, out of 8. You also left out the fact that Steve Rogers became Ironman v1 in that episode too. Not to mention all the other crazy shit that happened in that show.

It's already been pointed out repeatedly that these characters are not only not REPLACING the old ones, they exist at the same time, but it's also failing to address all the new male MCU characters as well.. Some are protegees, some are sidekicks, none is a direct replacement.

Who cares if there's more female characters? Who cares if it gets to the point that there are more females than males? They're damn comic book movies/shows about superheros. You can suspend your disbelief for a dude in a flying armored fortress or a 10 foot tall green dude that can smash real good, but not for female characters? Women actually exist, AND make up half the population.
