Overview

• Artwork on a crew gift shows Robert Downey Jr.’s Doctor Doom alongside Avengers, the Fantastic Four, and returning X‑Men including Professor X, Cyclops, Beast, Mystique, Nightcrawler, and Gambit.
• Spider‑Man, Hulk, Doctor Strange, and Captain Marvel are not depicted in the lineup, which outlets frame as possibly withheld reveals or indications of smaller roles.
• The image circulated after makeup artist Giovanna Ponci posted a photo of a crew bag on Instagram before setting the account to private, according to multiple reports.
• GamesRadar, citing The Hollywood Reporter, says principal photography has wrapped and a healthy dose of additional photography is planned ahead of the December 18, 2026 release.
• Designs are described as notably comic‑accurate and colorful for the mutants and other heroes, and Alan Cumming said he eventually received a script for his Nightcrawler return.
