Despite being in one of the first films of the MCU, Darcy Lewis (Kat Dennings) has had a tough ride of it recently. One of the defining characters of the first two Thor <\/em>movies, Darcy was unceremoniously forgotten by Marvel when the God of Thunder rebranded himself and went cosmic in 2017\u2019s Thor: Ragnarok<\/em>. Inasmuch, many fans thought that 2013\u2019s Thor: The Dark World<\/em><\/a>\u00a0would be the last they\u2019d see of this plucky, wise-cracking, earth-bound intern. However, the recently released WandaVision<\/em><\/strong> has brought back Darcy, and she\u2019s more crucial than ever<\/p>\n

Now a scientific expert on CMBR, she first appeared in Episode 4 of the Disney Plus series, discovering a way to hijack the \u201cHex\u2019s\u201d frequency so SWORD can monitor Wanda in Westview. This observational insight, paired with the character\u2019s innate charm and wit, has made Darcy something of an audience stand-in in the series, making comments that reinforce the \u2018sitcom reality\u2019 of the show (as proved by her famous line, \u201cshe recast Pietro!\u201d<\/a>).<\/p>\n

As a result, many viewers have pegged Dennings to exist solely as comic relief in the series, offsetting the increasingly dark tone of the episodes. This viewpoint was further supported by the revelation that Dennings wouldn\u2019t feature in the upcoming Thor: Love and Thunder<\/em> movie (currently filming in Australia)<\/a>: looks like the Thor <\/em>movies really wanted nothing to do with Darcy anymore.<\/p>\n

However, this doesn\u2019t mean the MCU is done with Dennings, though. Indeed, in a recent promotional interview with the YouTube channel ExtraTV, the actress revealed that \u201cthere are some\u2026 \u2018things\u2019 I\u2019ve done for Marvel that are coming out, that are not [Wandavision<\/em>]\u201d, before immediately cutting off any follow-ups with the coy \u201cbut I can\u2019t say.\u201d While Dennings is likely referring to Marvel\u2019s 2021 animated show What If<\/em><\/a>, in which crucial events of the MCU are subverted and reimagined (the majority of the actors of the MCU are slated to reprise their characters in voice roles), the fact she referred to plural \u2018things\u2019 has caused fans to rethink. What extra \u2018things\u2019 could Dennings be referring to? Seeing how Marvel Studios often plans and films its projects years in advance, there\u2019s a high chance Darcy Lewis has already filmed appearances in other properties \u2013 what could they be?<\/p>\n
