Are you a little unsure about what happened there? Here’s what it all means. But maybe where there’s a will there’s a way, and they weren’t too disruptive and managed to live happily ever after.The ending of Avengers: Endgame is the most emotional and human moment in perhaps the entire franchise. I don’t want to definitively say that they were pruned, but by our logic in the TVA, probably. Like if it’s alternate, it would imply that it’s running alongside our main timeline, so yeah. “It depends on how people fall on that side of things, because in my head I guess it would be… generally branches have to be pruned and then maintained, right? But it depends. Grant’s Classic Loki Variant living past his run-in with Thanos for a long time before the TVA caught up with him certainly has us thinking about this, and though Herron didn’t provide a definitive answer, she remains open to both options. And then the pessimists, ‘They probably got pruned (laughs).'” Maybe the romantics can say somehow that managed to exist. ![]() If you’re an optimist, maybe it was okay to be living that way, and the branch wasn’t so severe that it didn’t need to be pruned, and that meant that they could stay together. “I’m just like … People are going to be annoyed because it’s not a definitive answer, but also I can only really answer as a fan, right? My theory is this: It comes down to if you’re an optimist or a pessimist. “So! I’ve been thinking about this,” she said. To clarify some timeline issues, The Direct asked Loki helmer Kate Herron what she made of the increasingly convoluted situation between Steve and Peggy, and her answer will have you wondering whether every Nexus event needs to be dealt with by the TVA, or whether some are just kind of okay to let slide. Lokieven teased that very possibility at one point by having a Peggy Carter Variant apprehended in the background of a scene when the series got underway.īut Old Cap’s appearance at the end of Avengers: Endgame has always lent more credence to Markus and McFeely’s assurance that no branch reality or timeline occurred and, interestingly, Loki also adds context to this possibility by having the TVA tell the God of Mischief that everything the Avengers did during their time heist fiasco was supposed to happen in the ‘Sacred Timeline’.īlack Widow even went on to hint that the writers were on the money by occasionally referencing a behind the scenes Cold War rivalry between David Harbour’s Red Guardian and Old Cap during the 1980s! The organization’s purpose was to prune the MCU’s branch timelines, so it stands to reason that if the Russos were in the right, Steve and Peggy would have been erased by the TVA shortly after their heart-warming kiss in the final moments of Endgame. Then Marvel’s Loki came along this year and added fuel to the fire by introducing the bureaucratic Time Variance Authority. That ending, where Steve traveled back in time to reunite with his WWII sweetheart and only popped up again after the Blip to hand his iconic Captain America shield to Sam Wilson, certainly got fans asking a lot of time travel-related questions, like “how? “what?” and also “how?”Įndgame directors the Russo brothers attempted to address how Steve managed to make his dreams come true in the wake of the blockbuster’s release by saying that “he would have been in a branch reality and then had to have shifted over to this, so jumped from one to the other and handed the shield off” while writers Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely rejected the notion, stating “there is simply a period in world history from about ’48 to now where there are two Steve Rogers” with one of them frozen in ice for a large chunk of that time. ![]() Marvel created a perfect, ‘happily ever after’ ending for Steve Rogers and Peggy Carter as Avengers: Endgame wrapped up its story, but the writers and the directors of the film have never agreed upon the particulars of it. This article contains spoilers for Avengers: Endgame and Loki.
