11. Is Pepper Potts Ever Coming Back? - Captain America: Civil War

The Question: One of the weirdest things about Civil War was the absence of Pepper Potts (Gwyneth Paltrow), who is mentioned as having broken up with Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr), even though pre-release reports stated that she was on-board for the movie's re-shoots. So, is she done with the MCU or will we see her again?

The Likely Answer: Though Paltrow has stated she'd love to return to the part, it would seem pretty awkward to bring Pepper back after breaking up with Tony, and it's not like Civil War suffered through her absence, so it doesn't seem massively likely she'll be back any time soon, if ever.

Considering how many characters Infinity War already has to juggle, she can easily be cut from the franchise without many caring too much.
