Joe and Anthony Russo respond to whetherAvengers: DoomsdayandAvengers: Secret Warswill feature any of Disney+‘sMarvel Cinematic Universeheroes. While The Multiverse Saga hasn’t yet featured anyAvengersinstallments, that is about to change with Phase 6, which has not one, but two films centered on the MCU’s iconic superhero team on the way. AsDoomsdayandSecret Warswill feature various characters fromthe Marvel timelinefor the Phase 6 films, the biggest question surrounding the projects is which heroes will appear.
In a new interview withTechRadar,the outlet asked the Russo brothers if characters like Moon Knight, Ms. Marvel, Kate Bishop, or Wiccan could show up inAvengers: DoomsdayandSecret Warsfollowing their respective introductions on various Disney+ shows. While keeping it cryptic, Anthony Russo gave the following response about how they are approaching the casts for the two movies:
In terms of what we’re drawing on for our storytelling,we take the comprehensive view of the MCU. So, without getting into anything more specific than that, this is the universe we’re telling a story within. you’re able to read into that what you like.
What The Russo Brothers’ Comments Mean For Avengers: Doomsday & Avengers: Secret Wars
It’s Time For The MCU TV Heroes To Get Their Due In The Movies
In true Marvel Studios fashion, it is no surprise that the Russo brothers aren’t able to confirm who is and isn’t set to be part oftheAvengers: Doomsdaycast, as well as those involved withSecret Wars.It is always up to Marvel Studios when it comes to how much they revealabout their respective films, especially for something as big as theAvengersmovies. Major announcements like the Disney+ heroes being in theAvengerssequels could be something they’re saving for San Diego Comic-Con 2025.
Given the massive arc that will take place inAvengers: Doomsday, and the inclusion ofSecret Warsassource material,there will likely be a variety of established and newly introduced heroes in the Multiverse Saga finale. It’d be shocking if they didn’t have most of the Disney+ heroes who were introduced in Phases 4 through 6 in the two movies, especially as they deal with a major threat like Doctor Doom. It would also be a huge waste if the newer heroes from the shows didn’t get a chance to join what will be a new generation of Avengers.
