The Herald Scotland caught up with Hayley Atwell, who will play Peggy Carter in the upcoming Captain America film. Within the interview, she spoke of several things related to the movie. Here’s a snippet:
“I likened her character to that famous Ginger Rogers quote. She can do everything Captain America can do, but backwards and in high heels. She’s an English soldier through and through, although she always looks fabulous. She might stand there with a machine-gun shooting Nazis, but she’s obviously gone to the loo beforehand and applied a bit of lipstick. She doesn’t need to be rescued. That’s exciting to me – her strength.”
