The story he told mirrored that of Steve Rogers in Captain America: The First Avenger, but the difference is that when Steve snuck off of a base and rescued his war brothers, he was hailed as a hero. Valentina also works on a group called Femme Force with Sharon Carter, so with only this one scene, we don't know yet what path Val is going to head down in the MCU.Įarlier in the episode, Isaiah Bradley laid out the MCU''s equivalent of the Truth: Red, White, and Black comic book story as it applies to his character's history. Val could be from the Russian equivalent of SHIELD known as Leviathan, she could be a secret HYDRA agent, or she could be forming the Thunderbolts - which is kinda like Marvel's Suicide Squad if we distill down the the most simple mainstream terms… and thee purple hair highlight could be an homage to Victoria Hand or oversees the Thunderbolts Initiative in comics but she's recruiting John Walker and Zemo would have to be a part of such a team and it's hard to imagine Zemo working with a super soldier. I'll never forgive the Captain Marvel moment that explained the "Last time I trusted someone I lost my one good eye," moment when this could have been a much better explanation. But if it is Fury's ex-grifriend and she's not how he lost his eye. This is a character who goes on to become Madame HYDRA on the pages of Marvel Comics - also a character who dates Nick Fury - but I don't think we're gonna see either of those happen here… unless she this is the sneaky return of MCU HYDRA and Fury's ex-girlfriend. Going into Episode 5 we all wanted to know who the cameo that the filmmakers were teasing would be - it was Julia Louis-Dreyfus as Valentina Allegra de Fontaine.
