Getting a recognizable and respected actress like her for Proxima Midnight suggests the Black Order are more than just simple henchmen.

I wouldn't think so. Carrie Coon is both recognizable and respected in the television landscape, and a little bit on stage, but on film (with no disrespect intended), her only notable roles are in Gone Girl and The Post, neither of which had her stand out from the crowd. Additionally, probably no one had heard of Tom Vaughan-Lawlor before he got cast, and Terry Notary, while getting up there, has not had his own mo-cap work break off the way Andy Serkis or even Toby Kebbell has.

Also, just by going off of the footage, I'm pretty sure Proxima's going to bite the dust fairly early on. We already know she's due to fight Scarlet Witch, Black Widow, Cap, and Falcon, and she appears to be the target of Widow's line "We don't want to kill you, but we will". I actually wouldn't be surprised if NONE of the Black Order members make it out of this movie. Maybe a little disappointed, but not surprised.
