Marvel Comics/Universe is dominated by male superheroes with great powers, going head-to-head with deadly villains. But there is significant girl power inherent in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. They play an instrumental role in times of major crisis on Earth, some of them are even more powerful than men. The Marvel studios have been contemplating for quite some time, a standalone movie of a female superhero, which would please female marvel fans. Here is the list of 5 strongest female superheroes in the MCU:
Black Widow:
Natasha Romanova, orphaned as a child, trapped in a burning building, rescued by a Soviet soldier. She is a former KGB agent who was brainwashed into serving the ninja. She is one of the most prized assets of S.H.I.E.L.D who is now an active member of The Avengers. She is closest to getting a solo movie in the near future.
Lady Sif:
She is one of the greatest Asgardian warrior, a good friend of Thor and has many times helped S.H.I.E.L.D combat extra-terrestrial threats. She was created by Stan Lee based on Norse goddesses. Her famous quote is “I am no monster. I am sometimes dangerous, but only toward those who are deserving”. There is very little chance that she would get her own movie.
Captain Marvel:
Carol Danvers, subjected to large amounts of lethal radiation, which transformed her into a warrior. She donned the mantle of Captain Marvel and is now the member of the Avengers. She is another strong contender who might get a standalone movie.
Scarlett Witch:
She is one of the most devastating mutants who possess supernatural powers to manipulate reality, she is a sister of Quicksilver, daughter of Magneto and mother to Wiccan and speed. She had a sizeable role in Avengers: Age of Ultron and will be next seen in Captain America: Civil War. She is unlikely to get a solo movie anytime soon.
Wasp:
Janet Van Dyne, genetically altered by Dr. Pym, she gained abilities to fly, alter her size and fire bio-electric stings. She called herself “Wasp” and became a partner of Dr. Pym and joined the Avengers.
