"'''What If... Captain Carter Fought the Hydra Stomper?'''" is the fifth episode of the [[What  If...? season 2|second season]] and fourteenth episode overall of the American animated television series ''[[What If...? (TV series)|What If...?]]'', based on the [[Marvel Comics]] series [[What If (comics)|of the same name]]. Set in the timeline of [[What If...? season 1|Season 1]]'s first episode "[[What If... Captain Carter Were the First Avenger?]]", [[Peggy Carter (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Peggy Carter / Captain Carter]] learns that her former love, [[Steve Rogers (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Steve Rogers / Hydra Stomper]], has survived, and has become an international terrorist for the [[Red Room (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Red Room]]. The episode was written by [[head writer]] [[A. C. Bradley (screenwriter)|A. C. Bradley]] and directed by [[Bryan Andrews (filmmaker)|Bryan Andrews]].

[[Jeffrey Wright]] narrates the series as the [[Watcher (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Watcher]], with this episode also starring the voices of [[Samuel L. Jackson]], [[Hayley Atwell]] (Carter), [[Lake Bell]], [[Frank Grillo]], [[Josh Keaton]] (Rogers), [[Sebastian Stan]], [[Rachel Weisz]], and [[Elizabeth Olsen]]. Work on a second season of ''What If...?'' had begun by December 2019, with Andrews and Bradley returning from the first season. Animation was provided by [[Flying Bark Productions]], with [[Stephan Franck]] serving as head of animation.

"What If... Captain Carter Fought the Hydra Stomper?" was released on [[Disney+]] on December 26, 2023.

== Plot ==
Following a mission to retake the ''Lemurian Star'',{{efn|As depicted in the [[What If...? season 1|season 1]] episode "[[What If... the Watcher Broke His Oath?]]".}} Captain [[Peggy Carter (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Peggy Carter]] and [[Black Widow (Natasha Romanova)|Natasha Romanoff]] find a still-alive [[Steve Rogers (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Steve Rogers]] inside the Hydra Stomper armor. Rogers suddenly attacks them both before destroying the vessel. A briefing with [[Nick Fury (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Nick Fury]] leads Romanoff to deduce that Rogers, who went missing in 1953, was brainwashed by agents of the [[Red Room (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Red Room]]. Carter and Romanoff help [[Brock Rumlow (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Brock Rumlow]] protect [[Bucky Barnes (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Bucky Barnes]], who is Rogers's next target, before incapacitating Rogers and traveling to a secret hideout in Scotland. Attempts to reboot the suit fail as it is keeping Rogers alive, though each activation reduces chances of survival. Rogers (seemingly back to his senses) then offers to help Carter take down the Red Room in hopes of finding a cure before escorting her and Romanoff to a former [[KGB]] test site. The three survive an ambush by various automated drones before Rogers' brainwashing is reactivated by [[Melina Vostokoff (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Melina Vostokoff]], who admits to staging the earlier events. Carter battles Rogers while Romanoff fends off Vostokoff's Black Widows. After Carter pleads with him to stop fighting, Rogers flies towards the Red Room and destroys it in spite of her protests. Noticing Rogers, Romanoff fires her grappling hook to latch onto him and ties it to Vostokoff, who dies in the explosion. Sometime later, Carter, convinced Rogers is still alive, decides to go and find him. As she bids Romanoff farewell, a portal opens beneath Carter's feet and transports her to another universe, where she encounters medieval-era variants of Fury and [[Wanda Maximoff (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Wanda Maximoff]].

== Production ==
=== Development ===
In December 2019, [[Marvel Studios]] president [[Kevin Feige]] revealed that work had already begun on a [[What If...? season 2|second season]] of the animated [[anthology series]] ''[[What If...? (TV series)|What If...?]]'', based on the [[Marvel Comics]] series [[What If (comics)|of the same name]].<ref name="SecondSeason" /> It explores how the [[List of Marvel Cinematic Universe films|Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) films]] would be altered if certain events occurred differently.<ref name="Disney+SeriesSep2018" /> [[A. C. Bradley (screenwriter)|A. C. Bradley]] and [[Bryan Andrews (filmmaker)|Bryan Andrews]] returned from the [[What If...? season 1|first season]] as [[head writer]] and lead director,<ref name="Disney+DayDeadline" /><ref name="EpisodeDetails" /> and they executive produce alongside [[Brad Winderbaum]], [[Kevin Feige]], [[Louis D'Esposito]], and [[Victoria Alonso]].<ref name="EpisodeDetails" /> Bradley wrote the fifth episode,<ref name="EpisodeDetails" /> titled "What If... Captain Carter Fought the Hydra Stomper?",<ref name="Release" /> which continues the [[Parallel universes in fiction|alternate storyline]] from [[What If... Captain Carter Were the First Avenger?|the series' first episode]].<ref name="/FilmCCReview" /> It tells an alternate version of the film ''[[Captain America: The Winter Soldier]]'' (2014) mixed with elements from ''[[Black Widow (2021 film)|Black Widow]]'' (2021).<ref name="/FilmCCReview" /><ref name="SDCC2022Panel" /> "What If... Captain Carter Fought the Hydra Stomper?" was released on December 26, 2023, on [[Disney+]].<ref name="Release" /><!-- The episode was originally expected to be the season's first episode when it screened the 2022 [[San Diego Comic-Con]].<ref name="/FilmCCReview" /> -->

=== Writing ===
While development of the second season was beginning, [[Captain Carter]] became the character that the writers wanted to continue to revisit every season to continue her story after she had "bubbled up" in the [[What If...? season 1|first season]] as a prominent character.<ref name="CaptainCarterS2" /> The opening of the episode depicts Carter leading the [[Avengers (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Avengers]] during the [[Battle of New York (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Battle of New York]], with a team consisting of [[Tony Stark (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Tony Stark / Iron Man]], [[Thor (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Thor]], [[Clint Barton (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Clint Barton / Hawkeye]], [[Natasha Romanoff (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Natasha Romanoff / Black Widow]], and [[Hope van Dyne|Hope van Dyne / Wasp]]. Bradley explained Wasp's inclusion on the team at this point in the timeline, stating that because of Carter's prominence during [[World War II]], the [[feminist movement]] started earlier in this universe, leading to more women in positions of authority, including van Dyne taking on the Wasp mantle earlier. Additionally, other changes in the universe include [[Bucky Barnes (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Bucky Barnes]] surviving the war to become a "[[Jimmy Carter]]-esque elder statesman" and a musical [[biopic]] was created about Carter.<ref name="BradleyWaspInclusion" /> Bradley was eager to continue exploring the relationship between Carter and Romanoff, saying, "Their relationship isn't fraught with anxiety or worry or anything. It's actually just based on fun and enjoying each other's company." Bradley and series' story editor [[Matthew Chauncey]] had the idea to incorporate the [[Red Room (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Red Room]] into the episode after both worked in a small [[writers' room]] Marvel Studios created for ''Black Widow'' before that film started filming.<ref name="BradleyIGNDec2023" />

=== Casting ===
[[Jeffrey Wright]] narrates the episode as [[Watcher (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|the Watcher]],<ref name="WrightConfirm" /> with Marvel planning to have other characters in the series voiced by the actors who portrayed them in the MCU films.<ref name="WhatIfAnimation" /><ref name="S2ReturningActors" /> The episode stars the voices of [[Samuel L. Jackson]] as [[Nick Fury (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Nick Fury]], [[Hayley Atwell]] as [[Captain Carter|Peggy Carter / Captain Carter]], [[Lake Bell]] as [[Natasha Romanoff (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Natasha Romanoff / Black Widow]], [[Frank Grillo]] as [[Brock Rumlow (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Brock Rumlow]], [[Josh Keaton]] as [[Steve Rogers (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Steve Rogers / Hydra Stomper]], [[Sebastian Stan]] as [[Bucky Barnes (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Bucky Barnes]], [[Rachel Weisz]] as [[Melina Vostokoff (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Melina Vostokoff]],<ref name="ColliderReview" /> and [[Elizabeth Olsen]] as [[Wanda Maximoff (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Wanda-Merlin]].<ref name="ColliderReview" /><ref name="WandaMerlin" /> [[Bernard White (actor)|Bernard White]] also appears as Councilman Singh.<ref name="EndCredits" />{{rp|29:10}}
