The recently updated Captain America: Winter Soldier page on IMDB.com is now listing Samantha MacIvor as the personal stunt double for actress Branka Katic in the movie. However Branka Katic is not mentioned in the full cast list for the film; in both named and unamed parts.

So who is she? She must play some importance in the film if she has her own stunt double just as Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson and the other principal actors do.

Isn't Madame Hydra in The Wolverine? Maybe it's oneof those gray areas.
If not Madame Hydra, maybe she's...
maybe she's Scarlet Witch?

Yeah, she'll be Yelena Belova aka Black Widow 2.

Madame Hydra would be awesome as well, Rio. That or Abigail Brand which could provide a bit more of a slow burn reveal into Cosmic Marvel since she's a hybrid and involved with SWORD.

Yelena Widow seems to fit quite a bit better though upon first glance and limited info.

sinn (red skull's daughter) was involved in the winter soldier story.

Madam Viper? Can Marvel use her, even though, she's in The Wolverine?

Would be cool if Sin was in the movie but she should be a Redhead

@TheHeat: I would assume they most definitely can. Seems like she would be in one of those "legal grey areas" even though she's more of a Hydra character (which falls under Marvel Studios) than in the X-Universe.

There is only one N in her name. It's Sin not Sinn.

Could be Carol Danvers in more of an Ultimate Carol Danvers capacity.

It's Branka Katic, someone who I never heard of before and had suspected might be related to Stana Katic. She isn't, BTW.

So I don't think she plays anyone notable. If she's from the comics, it'll be an Ellen Brandt-type role.

Well, no. Technically, Viper is in The Wolverine. Comics-wise, she took the Viper identity ster murdering the original Viper after she severed ties with HYDRA, so it's not like she was tied up with them at that point.

It sounds like this could be a case of a temporary character license for this story or another grey area. It could be that Viper can absolutely function as a self contained character as long as there's no attempt to work in a back story involving HYDRA and Marvel can work the Madam Hydra angle (as any Viper related stuff wouldn't be relevant).
