Early Buzz Is Positive for Avengers: Doomsday as April Reshoots Approach

The Russos say Steve Rogers remains pivotal to the MCU, signaling a back-to-basics focus during a deliberate quiet in marketing.

Overview

  • The film is in post-production with April pick-ups planned, and industry reporter Jeff Sneider says early internal reaction is "good."
  • Marvel is keeping promotion measured, skipping a Super Bowl spot after rolling out four teasers late last year.
  • Current coverage points to a large ensemble spanning Avengers, Fantastic Four and X-Men veterans, with Robert Downey Jr. reported to play Doctor Doom.
  • An insider claims a significant portion of the story is set in Latveria and that an Avengers–X-Men clash stems from multiversal Incursion trauma, which remains unconfirmed.
  • A separate rumor asserts Chris Evans will also appear in Avengers: Secret Wars after Doomsday; neither Marvel nor the filmmakers have confirmed this.
