"I went over earlier this year to Pittsburgh to film, so all the stuff is new footage," Atwell said, despite previous reports that she would not feature in the film.

Asked about plans for an Agent Carter TV spinoff, she added : "I read about that too. The one-shot was so successful, the fanbase were like, ’We want more of Peggy !’.

"I think Marvel probably take that very seriously, and it’s certainly something I would be a part of doing. I’d be interested to show different sides of Peggy."

She continued : "Although she’s kick-ass, and she can be aggressive and she can be just as competent as the men, it’d be nice to show that she’s a feminist in a way.

"It’s not just about her being aggressive and as aggressive as the men in those action sequences, but being able to be a little bit more rounded as a person."

Atwell added : "I think she could be a great role model and a great member of the Marvel Universe.

"I love the Marvel lot, they’re really great people to work with, so it would be nice to go back and work with them again. I’d definitely do it."

Quizzed on the lack of female superheroes leading the recent wave of comic book movies, she agreed : "Where are the women ? Where are the women who are leading and not just the hot sex symbol in the tight outfits, or the aggressive ones with their sexy action sequences ?

"Where are the ones that are battling with their own identity like Iron Man is ? Or trying to make a difference in the forefront ?"

Atwell added : "There were a couple of articles that the producer of the Marvel one-shot sent me last month about that very question.

"Journalists were going, ’Where are these women ?’ and, ’We want them, we actually want them’, which is wonderful for me, because that hopefully means more time to play those parts."

Hayley Atwell is currently starring in Jamie Lloyd’s The Pride at Trafalgar Studios, which runs until November 9.

All Monday tickets are £15, and half of these have been made available through the Ambassador Theatre Group Creative Learning Department outreach scheme. Day seats are also be available at £10 for all performances.
