Alan Cumming Says Pedro Pascal Hurt His Neck in Their First Avengers: Doomsday Scene

Cumming emphasized the mishap wasn’t a fight scene, saying Pascal later treated the strain with cupping.

Overview

  • On Jimmy Kimmel Live, Cumming joked "I broke Pedro" after revealing Pascal was sent home with a neck issue during their first day filming together.
  • He said neither character was using powers in the moment, noting he had no tail on and Pascal did not have his extended arms.
  • Cumming described the injury as manageable, recalling that Pascal showed him cupping marks from treatment days later at their hotel.
  • Earlier comments about stunt training and being told he would be "hitting Pedro Pascal" have fueled fan speculation about a possible on‑screen clash, which remains unconfirmed.
  • Cumming has spoken about isolated, green‑screen‑heavy shooting as Marvel unites legacy X‑Men with the Fantastic Four, with Avengers: Doomsday set for December 18, 2026.
