- Mainstream feature films: Inclusion in Godzilla (2014) shows participation in large-scale studio productions.
- Franchise television and shared universes: Her role in WandaVision (2021) ties her to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, a major contemporary media franchise, expanding her visibility and influence within serialized superhero storytelling.
