Movies AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY (Fourth Teaser Trailer Officially Released; post #766)

[Lycandroid]

Doom is the best Marvel character IMO there is no way in fuck they are going to do his character justice, they would have to do better than they have ever done.

I honestly wonder if he's going to be anything at all like his comicbook counterpart. Sometimes these stooges at Marvel will use a character and make them NOTHING like how they really are.

Watch RDJ’s Tony Stark Doom be a macguffin to get asses in the theater seats and get killed off by the MCU’s true Dr. Doom.

Like the whole thing with the Mandarin, again.

Otherwise the RDJ casting just feels like a cheap out since Feige didn’t wanna stick with Kang.. with the role recasted or not.

You may be right. I read somewhere that RDJ is only playing Doom in Secret Wars and Doomsday. There is no way they will only have Doctor Doom appear in only two films, so an MCU Doom will have to arise.

This was my thought. Alternate reality Stark becomes Doom, real Doom kills him....

Chris Evans Returning to the Marvel Cinematic Universe for AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY

After appearing in Deadpool & Wolverine, Chris Evans is dipping back into the Marvel Cinematic Universe once again for Avengers: Doomsday, The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed.

Evans’ longtime collaborators the Russo brothers — who directed Evans in four films — are directing, with Robert Downey Jr. playing Doctor Doom. The film has a release date of May 1, 2026.

The actor played Johnny Storm/The Human Torch in Deadpool & Wolverine, reprising his role from a pair of Fantastic Four movies made by Fox in the 2000s. But he was best known for playing Steve Rogers/Captain America in the MCU, where he was a cornerstone of the universe.

It is unclear in what capacity Evans would return or what role he would play — Storm or Rogers? — as the new Marvel feature project once again deals with multiple timelines and universes and is expected to reunite many actors from the previous films as well as current ones (i.e. Fantastic Four).

Rogers retired from the role of Captain America with 2019’s Avengers: Endgame, which ended with Steve Rogers traveling to the past to spend his life with his love, Peggy Carter (Hailey Atwell). Rogers lived decades in anonymity, returning to the present to pass on the Captain America shield to friend Sam Wilson (Anthony Mackie).

He originated the role with Captain America: The First Avenger (2011), and also appeared in The Avengers (2012), Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014), Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015), Captain America: Civil War (2016) Avengers: Infinity War (2018) and Endgame. He had cameos in Thor: The Dark World (2013) and Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017).

In 2023, he told GQ he was open to a return, if it felt right. Said the actor: “I wouldn’t want the black eye if it felt like a cash grab or if it didn’t live up to expectations or if it just felt like it wasn’t connected to that original thing.”

Evans was first cast in March 2010 after turning down the role multiple times and beating out actors such as John Krasinski, Garrett Hedlund, Michael Cassidy, Patrick Flueger, Scott Porter, Wilson Bethel, Mike Vogel and Chace Crawford.

On his last day of filming Endgame in 2018, Evans shared a message of gratitude, tweeting, “It was an emotional day to say the least. Playing this role over the last 8 years has been an honor. To everyone in front of the camera, behind the camera, and in the audience, thank you for the memories! Eternally grateful.”

Is anyone gone for good ? He was already back with Deadpool in a sense.

'Tony' back, Cap back (sorry low ratings Falcon), Wolverine back, everyone back, get Wanda in there too. Cool for the fans I guess but it will chip away at the stakes if they keep doing moves like this.

There's an old joke among comic book writers,

"No one stays dead except Uncle Ben, Gwen Stacy and Batman's parents".

Bring back Jessica Alba.

Thomas Wayne looms

Gwen Stacy also only sort of dead...these days Ghost spider/spider Gwen.

Man — I feel like that only applies to Ben at this point

Aren't Bruce's parents still taking the dirt nap?

 

[Deleted member 592570]

This trash is still going? The MCU ended with Endgame, with a final breath from No Way Home. No interest in watching a C-level avengers movie.

Yeah it's fairly pathetic at this point. They did the whole 'we don't need those guys, here's our exciting new lineup' thing and that flopped and now begging us to come back by giving us sort of what we wanted in the first place.

Too late.

I assume a "reboot" happens after the Doomsday movie and there won't be a multi-verse anymore....until the next one 15 years from now.

This won't be Cap's first resurrection.

When what you're doing doesn't work, you go back to the well.

 

[ChosenOne]

RDJ going to try and break the Sean Bean record for dying in character, on screen.
