Peggy's age in Avengers Endgame

Peggy's age in Avengers Endgame - Chocolate Cupcakes on Black Table

The first Captain America movie happens in the 40s. Steve falls in love with Peggy then.

In Avengers Endgame, Cap and Ironman travel to 1970. Cap sees Peggy then, she doesn't seem to have aged a day since the 40s.

How does this work, shouldn't Peggy have been 30 years older than we saw her in Captain America: The First Avenger?



Best Answer

We don't get much of a good look of her, as we only see her briefly through a window with blinds. Nonetheless, she does seem to have some streaks of grey hair and is a little wrinkley-er.

Also, she was born in 1921 (source). So in 1970, she would've been either 48 or 49. It's not implausible to me that the woman below is 48 or 49.

Answer 2

There is no direct dialogue in the film which addresses this, however there are several possibilities:

  1. This could have been an oversight in the film
  2. She did look different, it was just difficult to discern
  3. The character's use of make-up made it more difficult to discern her character's age
  4. The directors simply didn't have a good/viable/economical way to address that specific detail
