The trouble is, with SHIELD gone, I feel like A LOT of what you mentioned isn't viable to explore ANYMORE. I think they could have done a lot of that in The Winter Soldier (showing us Sharon's difficulties at being an Agent in the organization her aunt started) but at this point SHIELD's collapsed. And even with AoU, it's been gutted and they've "started over." Meanwhile, we saw that Sharon ended up joining the CIA.

I suppose that's a bit where my issue lies with this (potentially good) storyline -- is that it would have had to have been built up a LOT more in The Winter Soldier. Because with SHIELD imploding the way it did, I don't think it's as viable anymore.

And that's not a fault on Sharon in any way. I just think it reflects the reality of how time-constrained these movies are.

AYRT: Mmm as a writer I seriously disagree - I think there's still a lot to do even with SHIELD-itself gone, because SHIELD's (long historical and even "gutted" future) impact and influence is still potentially at play, Peggy's status in the intelligence community is still at play, Sharon and Steve's PERSONAL history is still at play, and even WITHOUT all of that, Sharon's still coming up from a totally different history with regards to sexism within the field (not that it's gone, it just expresses differently and has different effects), she'd still have to deal with her aunt's shadow in terms of any kind of relationship - working or romantic - with Steve, etc.

I think there's tons to do. I'm not saying MCU will DO it (my feelings about AoU are unprintable, etc), I'm just saying there's nothing inherently retread, or locked into Peggy-Clone territory, or anything else, about the story as stands. (And I wouldn't trust MCU to actually do the arc you've suggested well anyway, so it's all one on that score.)

I entirely agree with the time-constraints/etc. Just, again: coming from a very different set of assumptions, "Sharon's boring/her storyline's been done, she should be a HYDRA double-agent" can feel pretty hateful.
