By the point Marvel concluded its hours-long YouTube presentation of the total forged of Avengers: Doomsday it had revealed 27 completely different names. One — Robert Downey Jr. — had already been introduced again at Comedian-Con in 2024. Some, like Chris Hemsworth and Anthony Mackie, had been all however forgone conclusions; you arguably couldn’t make one other Avengers sequel with out them.

However then there have been another names — possibly a 3rd of the total roster revealed on-line and on social media right now — that had been real out-of-left-field surprises. Lots of them had been members of the Fox X-Males franchise, which is technically defunct following Disney’s acquisition of the twentieth Century Fox studio. Perhaps it wasn’t that stunning that Patrick Stewart would seem in Doomsday, provided that he already made one cameo within the MCU in 2022’s Physician Unusual within the Multiverse of Insanity. Alternatively, the names introduced right now included at the very least one actor who hadn’t appeared in an X-Males film in over 20 years! A baby who was born the 12 months this individual final performed a Marvel superhero can legally eat alcohol now. That’s wild.

Listed here are the 9 greatest surprises within the forged record for Avengers: Doomsday. After all, there are some stunning omissions from the forged as nicely. (The place is Tom Holland? Spider-Man doesn’t get to struggle Physician Doom? Does nobody however me recall The Wonderful Spider-Man #5???) However that’s a topic for one more day.
