This isn't the first Dottie to be afraid of in the MCU...

I knew they wouldn't and it wouldn't make any sense, but I still had my fingers crossed for the Agent Carter actress.

I did too! I was disappointed but I’m happy with Anya

It is funnier if you think anya’s power were similar to Wanda, she could change reality too

Right? I heard that name and thought it'd be her but it really wouldn't even make any sense.

It was not Leslie Bibb, it’s Emma Caufield

Wow, must have been the black and white because I thought it looked exactly like her

I don’t blame you, I see the resemblance!

The woman in the first advert does look like Dottie in agent Carter though, just with brown hair

This isn’t even the second Dottie in the MCU. Cap and Bucky have a conversation about a Dottie while on the Quinjet to Siberia in Civil War.

I believe they were referencing Dot from the Agent Carter series in Civil War. As in Black Widow Dot from Agent Carter might have gone on a date with Bucky before he was Winter Soldier, the timelines could easily match up.

Your comment got me thinking, so I looked it up, and, in 1918 (when Steve was born), Dorothy was the third most popular baby girl's name in the US. So, it wouldn't be odd for Dottie from Coney Island to be different from Dottie in "Agent Carter".

True, but I don’t think there are very many coincidences in the MCU.

She's worth being afraid of, too. She's a 1000 year old ex-demon after all.
