Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness introduced fans to Xochitl Gomez as America Chavez. During an interview with Fandom, the actress weighed in on what’s next for her character in the MCU. As of now, she is uncertain of her future in the MCU as the leaders of the studio have not told her what their plans are for her.
It does put into question whether or not she is dodging questions she cannot answer. Andrew Garfield, Tobey Maguire, and Charlie Cox had tricked fans by acting like they were in the dark when plans were laid out for what was coming up for them in the franchise. It seems unlikely that Marvel has no plans for Xochitl Gomez as America Chavez, who can punch holes, in reality, to hop into another universe. Since this saga is called the Multiverse Saga, surely she must have a moderate part in it.
Xochitl Gomez unsure of America Chavez being in another MCU project
Xochitl Gomez ended her America Chavez debut in Kamar-Taj to learn the Mystic Arts with Wong. It can give the character growth and knowledge about her powers when or if we see her again. For the teenage actress, she finds it the perfect place for her character.
Entering the MCU in Doctor Strange as a fan meant that Xochitl Gomez, as America Chavez needed to be more than that. The actress reached out to fellow Marvel fan and newcomer Iman Vellani from Ms. Marvel. The two had dinner and bonded over their new stardom in the MCU and their love for the franchise.
With rumors of Young Avengers coming to fruition one day and the current setup for Avengers: Secret Wars, along with everything in between, there are plenty of places to see the actress reprise her role. For now, we will patiently wait as the next MCU projects are underway with I Am Groot (August 10), She-Hulk (August 17), and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (November 11).
