That leaves the two Avengers teams to sort out. The first doesn’t take much work because the end of Thunderbolts* reveals that the titular team is now the New Avengers, and they’re such a tight-knit group that they’re unlikely to pick up any stragglers. Sam Wilson’s group, which consists only of him and Joaquin Torres, is in a very different position, needing warm bodies. However, while putting together Captain America’s lineup seems like a simple exercise given the remaining names to choose from, Marvel Studios may be throwing a curveball.
Marvel May Be Ready to Announce the Final Avengers Team in Doomsday
Like every other studio, Disney enjoys marketing its projects. The House of Mouse doesn’t do things halfway, though, taking every chance it can get to show off what it’s working on. At the Italian film industry event Giornate Di Cinema Sorrento, Disney gave a presentation, covering everything from Avatar: Fire and Ash, which is gearing up to hit theaters, to Toy Story 5, a highly anticipated movie that just wrapped up its recording sessions. Doomsday capped off the segment, and while it was more of the same, with the presenter mostly discussing the cast, there was an interesting graphic that could very well provide some insight into the film’s direction.
Rather than showing the entire cast on screen, it was broken up into segments. The Fantastic Four got a graphic, as did the X-Men and the New Avengers. Anthony Mackie saw his name appear alongside a few other actors who play characters with strong ties to his own, including Chris Hemsworth, Paul Rudd, Danny Ramirez, and Simu Liu. The one outlier was Tom Hiddleston, who, of course, plays Loki in the MCU. The God of Mischief isn’t exactly in a position where he could walk away from his duties and join a team. However, Doomsday can move some pieces around, making the Avengers’ original villain their most important member.
