Behind the Scenes

• There is significant disagreement between Avengers: Endgame directors Joe Russo and Anthony Russo and screenwriters Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely about the nature of Peggy Carter's marriage to Steve Rogers and whether it constitutes a separate universe at all. The Russos stated several times that they believed Rogers married a version of Carter from an alternate timeline, whereas Markus and McFeely have stated their belief that Rogers married the Peggy Carter from his own timeline. This led to significant debate among fans, although a former bureaucrat on the MCU Wiki insisted on simply following the Russo brothers' interpretation without discussing that of Markus and McFeely. In August 2025, a discussion was opened regarding the time travel, seeking a consensus so that the wiki's coverage could align with the views of the community. An event consensus was to maintain that Rogers married Carter in an alternate timeline, which resulted in the wiki naming the universe as the "Steve Rogers' Married Life" universe per the wiki's policies.
