What If...? season 3 episode 4 shall focus on two main characters leading the storyline: Howard the Duck and Darcy Lewis. Howard the Duck is a beloved Marvel fan-favorite, who has appeared before in space-oriented MCU films like the Guardians of the Galaxy installments. The character was also featured in the first two seasons as a cameo appearance.

On the other hand, Dr Darcy Lewis has been a part of the MCU since the first Thor film, where she was introduced as an intern with astrophysicist Jane Foster. Since then, Darcy has gone on to obtain her astrophysics doctorate and was seen playing a prominent role in WandaVision, with the S.H.I.E.L.D. team that monitored the residents of Westview.

The cast list for the upcoming episode also indicated the presence of characters like Nick Fury, Loki Laufeyson, and Yondu Udonta in the episode. Given that the realms of space are involved, the leader of the Ravagers and the Prince of Asgard might make interesting additions to the plot. Additionally, since Nick Fury is the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., he might play a role in Darcy's side of the story.
