America Chavez, AKA Miss America, has always been a fairly well-liked character, but a recent solo comic run from Gabby Rivera and Joe Quinones has resulted in a surge in popularity.
Whether this leads to Marvel Studios taking note and announcing plans for a live-action adaptation (be it film or TV) remains to be seen, but if it were to happen, Brooklyn 99 actress Stephanie Beatriz would be more than happy to step into Miss Chavez's red, white 'n blue sneakers.
Even if the studio does get around to doing something with Chavez, it'll probably be some time before we see get to see it come to fruition - however, the Captain Marvel movie might just open the door for a similarly mega-powerful female hero sooner rather than later.
Though America Chavez is typically depicted as a teenager (there was an adult incarnation from a possible future that served as Captain America), what would you think about Beatriz taking on the role? Sound off below.
