Avengers: Doomsday General News & Discussion Thread

Should we be concerned that Pedro Pascal hasn't been announced yet?

He was just announced. Ruined the X-Men streak

Pedro Pascal just got announced.

 

[sdgrandia86]

This countdown is a shore but smart, it will get Marvel/Avengers/MCU/Doomsday trending and people talking.

Excited we are getting the OG XMen - we need Famke, Hailey, and Anna.

Also expecting Tatiana, Ruffalo, Evangeline, Imana, Larson, Brie Larson, Teyonah, Natalie Portman, Chris Pratt and maybe GotG crew

By the end of this, they’ll probably have a chair for Rosemary Harris.

As Carnage! It's been a 20 year wait!

This announcement is surely for both Avengers 5 & 6, so expect the big names! Ugh I hate how they are announcing this. Every 20 minutes. But i can't turn off this YouTube video because I want to be there when certain cast members are announced.

This announcement is surely for both Avengers 5 & 6.

It says it is for Avengers: Doomsday.

 

[psylockolussus]

Any second now... cmon, its just bg music! I need another name!

 

[psylockolussus]

Whattt??? I guess I can sleep now!

 

[DyeLorean]

Wow. So many characters missing from this.

 

[psylockolussus]

I'm confused...

 

[OrbOfConfusion]

I can't imagine this is the full-full cast, but we'll see.

 

[Pfeiffer-Pfan]

Meh... This definitely could have been a press release. Now IF they didn't announce Downey Jr. at Comic-Con, it might have been something.

As it is, underwhelming.

 

[BMM]

I can't imagine this is the full-full cast, but we'll see.

I very much doubt it, but it gives us a good idea of what to expect.

As it is, underwhelming.

Or not announcing Downey Jr. last year at all and doing that big announcement plus this entire cast this year.

 

[Primal Slayer]

What does one have to do to get Halle back to give her a film that actually uses her

 

[emc5466]

Disappointed that Hugh Jackman wasn’t announced.

 

[Havok83]

UGH! Can they let the Foxverse die already? We should have been had the MCU Xmen announcement by now

 

[squeekness]

Disappointed that Hugh Jackman wasn’t announced.

He'll be there if only for a cameo or something. I don't see Marvel replacing him anytime soon. He earns them too much money.

They are saving that **** for after Secret Wars.

 

[Superhero 101]

No Fury Star lord DP Wolvie or Spidey maybe announce/save them as comic con

 

[sdgrandia86]

The X Men cast announcement has me exciting. I recall when the first movie was coming out and buying those Wizard magazines that had photos of Magneto helmet, articles and stuff like that.

Surprise to see Tattum and Rebecca, still hoping for Famke, Hailey and Anna. Deadpool's version of Colossus and Ana's Magik would be the icing on the cale for me.

Still hate RDJr as Doom with a passion. His chair reveal was anticlimactic for me.

 

[DyeLorean]

(He looks so old. I can't believe it's been almost 20 years since the first Iron Man and the birth of the MCU)

As for the cast... it's a really great mix of new and returning characters, although I was hoping for She-Hulk, Moon Knight, Daredevil or Ms Marvel from the TV side. The original X-Men wasn't on my bingo card. I thought after Deadpool & Wolverine that book was closed but no, they're milking it some more.

 

[Dr. Evil]

If this film is shooting now, Charlie Cox wasn't going to be there since he's shooting Season Two of Born Again.

As for OG X-Men, this film indicates this is a proper farewell to them that they didn't get.

Deadpool/Wolverine made too much money for Marvel not to try for more.

 

[psylockolussus]

I have an idea how Thunderbolts* gets involved in this, I guess through Sentry. Sam Wilson and Joaquin Torres though?

Also during the livestream I made a list. If this is the main cast for Doomsday. That does it mean all these characters are in Secret Wars.

[Dr. Evil]

As for the TV characters, the only one I can't see fitting into either movie is the Punisher. Every other one I can easily see fitting into either film. I am curious to see what Daredevil does to get the attention of the Avengers in one of the movies.
