    Captain Carter was introduced in the What If…? animated series. Maybe it’s a different universe character, but the character didn’t exist in the comics before the show.

    I think you’re 100% right that Marvel will pick and choose which characters to promote to the official MCU canon, and which will be ignored. They already decided that Coulson stayed dead as far as the movies are concerned. Any of the Netflix characters could make their debut in the new MCU. We’ve already seen Fisk and Daredevil, maybe we also get Punisher, Jessica Jones, Luke Cake, Jeri Hogarth, Foggy, a resurrected Purple Man, Nuke, Misty Knight, Colleen Wing, Madam Gao, Stick, and, um… yeah that’s it. From Sony, we could see Venom, Carnage, or Kraven show up if they can manage to make a deal with Sony. I doubt we’ll see Morbius, but maybe he gets a brief cameo in Blade?

    I think picking up the DOFP XMen cast makes a lot of sense. Fassbender and McAvoy did a fine job taking on the mantle.
