It's been clear for a year or so now that Marvel are keen on the idea of bringing the Young Avengers to the big screen, and though they likely won't appear as an actual 'Young Avengers' team, fans should expect characters from that comic to be integrated over the course of Phase 4.

In the comics, one of the leading members of the team was Cassie Lang, who went by the name of Stature. Cassie already played a part in both Ant-Man films, and was played by Abby Ryder Fortson. There looks to be a time-jump for Avengers: Endgame though, so 17 year old Emma Fuhrmann has replaced Fortson in the role, leading fans to speculate that she could be taking on a heroic guise a lot sooner than may have been expected.

Rumours of Marvel pursuing the Young Avengers characters have persisted for the last year now, and while the extent of Cassie's role in Endgame is yet to be revealed, if Marvel really are keen on the idea of introducing a new generation of heroes, then Stature would be a great place to start.
