r/marvelstudios on Reddit: Does double-casting Alfre Woodard bother anyone else?
May 18, 2016 -
Alfre Woodard was in Captain America: Civil War as Miriam Sharpe, the mother who met Tony in front of the elevator and blames her son's death on Iron Man and the Avengers. She is also casted as Mariah Dillard in Luke Cage. The latter is a pretty big role I'm assuming as she's a big baddy in Luke's comics and she's listed as a series regular.
I realize that MCU films are by Marvel Studios, which is independent from the rest of Marvel, including Marvel Television who oversees the Netflix series, which are also in the MCU, but in this vast universe Marvel (in general) is creating, they've been really careful not to double cast for obvious continuity reasons. I understand that means that eventually, all of Hollywood might be casted somewhere in the MCU but this seems like quite the misstep. Thoughts?

I don't think it's a big deal. She was cast in Civil War, did a very, very short scene and was cast in Luke Cage. I wouldn't be surprised if the Luke Cage people didn't even know she was in Civil War. Also, she looks different enough in Luke Cage, and there are plenty of people who look alike in real life. I don't think it's a big deal. She's an amazing actress (obviously)

This isn't the first time they've taken a small character from the movies and reused them. Enver Gjokaj had a small role in The Avengers and was a major character in Agent Carter. Laura Haddock was a minor character in The First Avenger and was Peter's mom in Guardians of the Galaxy. As long as she doesn't look completely identical, it won't bother me.
