While talking with CBR News, Bridget Regan first started by talking about how her auditioning when for Agent Carter when down, "The audition process was really great. One of the writers on "Agent Carter," Jose Molina, wrote two audition scenes for me. There was some talk about her childhood in the sides, so I had a feeling about who she might be." She then tells that she wasn't familiar with some of the elements of her character's background, but she was excited to be sitting with Kevin Feige and working with the Marvel Universe, " It wasn't confirmed for me in the room that she was a Black Widow until I was sitting with [Marvel Studios President] Kevin Feige going, "Oh my gosh. I can't believe this is happening." The sides were really great scenes." She then adds, "To be honest, I was disappointed they weren't in the show because they were so good."
She then revealed if whether or not she was aware of any possible connection between Dottie and Natasha Romanoff. She responded, "That was my first question. It was actually brought up because of my hair, of all things. I had red hair when I was starting on this project. We didn't want the audience to be tipped off that Dottie was a Black Widow." She then tells what they didn't want people to think, "They also didn't want people to think every single Black Widow had red hair. We decided to make a change, but I immediately asked that question as well." She then adds, "The answer is, "No, there is no relation there."
She later talks about how her character on Agent Carter is fascinated with Peggy. "She's very curious about Peggy, and in that moment, Dottie tries her on a little bit," She then tells that Dottie is baffled by Peggy Carter and states some of the questions she might have about Peggy Carter. "'What would it feel like to be Peggy? Could I be Peggy?' That moment was so much fun to play with. I think Dottie is sort of baffled by her." Bridget Regan thinks that her character Dottie "is a soldier" and that "she's powerful and dangerous", what do you think Dottie brings to Agent Carter? Sound off below with your thoughts!
