The cast of Marvel’s highly anticipated Avengers Doomsday is currently deep in production, and during recent press rounds, these actors have been inadvertently spilling secrets left and right. Despite Marvel’s infamous reputation for locking down information tighter than Fort Knox, cast members from Hugh Jackman to Anthony Mackie have let some tantalizing details slip during interviews. Here’s a breakdown of every rumor and revelation these MCU heroes have dropped while trying to play it cool.
Haley Atwell’s Panic Mode
Haley Atwell experienced one of the most chaotic interview moments when asked about rumors of filming a Marvel movie. Her immediate panic and attempt to blame Reddit for the rumors screamed guilt. The way she completely lost her composure suggested there’s definitely more to this story than she’s letting on.
Rebecca Romaine Slips Up About Production
Rebecca Romaine looked like she’d just come back from the Doomsday set. When asked if she was done shooting her scenes, her response of “not quite sure” followed by “the script hasn’t been finished writing” was a massive slip-up. She clearly realized she said too much and started backtracking in real time.
James Marsden Returns as Cyclops After 20 Years
James Marsden is back as the leader of the X-Men after two decades! The excitement is genuine here, even as he roasted himself and Marvel simultaneously. After 10, then 20 years passed, nobody expected to see Cyclops return, but here we are.
Alan Cumming’s Nightcrawler Return
Alan Cumming is hilarious and unbothered about his return as Nightcrawler at age 60, learning new fight choreography on set. He revealed he’s fighting some incredible opponents and hinted at someone with Pedro Pascal involvement when he joked about hitting Pedro Pascal in the head.
Hugh Jackman: “More Like Dominate and Destroy”
Hugh Jackman gave the perfect response when asked about appearing in Avengers Doomsday. With masterful confidence from years of handling questions, he joked that when the interviewer says “appear,” it’s more like “dominate and destroy every other character.” His delivery was so smooth it was impossible to tell if he was being serious or joking around.
Chris Evans’ FOMO is Real
Chris Evans admits feeling left out of the biggest MCU reunion in years. When asked how many times he’s been questioned about Steve Rogers, he revealed nobody has really asked him. The FOMO is palpable—especially when the interviewer mentions that Robert Downey Jr. and the Rogers are coming back. Chris mentions he talks to them all the time and notes that Pedro is where the action is happening, adding that it’s sad not to be “back with the band.”
Anthony Mackie: Captain America’s Screen Time Confirmed
Anthony Mackie was hilarious when joking about the massive 300 million-view announcement, claiming he was responsible for 180 million of those views. More importantly, when asked about rumors that Captain America will have more screen time than anyone else in Doomsday, he basically confirmed it with a laugh: “Damn the internet true too.” That’s essentially a confirmation that Captain America is leading the charge in this film.
Production Details from the Russo Brothers
The Russo Brothers confirmed they’re filming in London right now and will start rolling cameras in April. According to their estimates, the first Avengers Doomsday film will be approximately 2.5 hours long, while Secret Wars will clock in at around 3 hours. Marvel fans are definitely eating good with these epic runtime expectations.
Charlotte Cox’s Denial (Probably a Lie)
Charlie Cox claimed he’s NOT involved in Avengers Doomsday and that he’s excited to see it as a fan. However, considering Marvel’s track record of having Andrew Garfield deny being in Spider-Man: No Way Home during his entire press tour while he was already filmed, fans should keep their expectations flexible on this one.
Channing Tatum’s Hype About the Film
Channing Tatum confidently stated that fans aren’t ready for what’s coming in Avengers Doomsday. Living his childhood dreams on set and fanboying over everyone, he promises it will be “the biggest thing they’ve ever done” and will “melt people’s brains.” His enthusiasm is genuine and infectious.
Kelsey Grammer as Beast: RDJ Scene Hints
Kelsey Grammer is thrilled to be returning as Beast and getting to interact with people he never shared scenes with before. He almost spilled details about scenes with Robert Downey Jr. and Pedro Pascal before catching himself. The fact that he’s a huge fan of RDJ adds another layer to the anticipation.
Sebastian Stan on Working with RDJ as Doctor Doom
Sebastian Stan expressed his excitement about working with Robert Downey Jr. again, this time as the villain Doctor Doom. He praised RDJ’s talent for reinventing himself and his characters. However, fans shouldn’t forget that Bucky and Tony have serious history—The Winter Soldier literally killed Tony’s parents. This dynamic with RDJ as Doom will be absolutely wild.
Chris Hemsworth: An Elder Among the Newbies
Chris Hemsworth revealed what filming looks like in London, mentioning it’s fantastic to be back with both old and new cast members. He reflected on how he’s gone from being the new guy wondering what he’s doing to feeling like “one of the elders” on set. Time really does fly when you’ve been playing Thor for over a decade.
Pedro Pascal and the Love Triangle Rumors
When asked about potential love triangles in Doomsday, Pedro Pascal stayed silent while his co-stars teased him. His refusal to confirm or deny anything while sitting back with a knowing smile suggests there’s definitely something there for fans to decode.
Haley Steinfeld’s Viral Video Denial
Haley Steinfeld addressed the viral video that convinced many she was in Avengers Doomsday. She claimed she didn’t hear the fan asking if she’d be in the Avengers and was just nodding at something else. MCU fans aren’t buying it—we all know what we saw in that video.
Gwyneth Paltrow’s Cryptic Answer
When asked if Pepper Potts will return for Avengers Doomsday, Gwyneth Paltrow’s response was peak Gwyneth: “We’ll see.” Two words and a knowing look that said absolutely everything without revealing anything.
Halle Berry’s Unconvincing “No”
When asked if Storm is coming back for Avengers Doomsday, Halle Berry immediately said “Nope.” However, that knowing smirk said it all. MCU fans saw right through that denial, and the cryptic nature of her response screams that she’s returning.
Simu Liu on Finding Out About the Cast
Simu Liu revealed he didn’t even know who was in the film until Marvel announced it during that massive live stream announcement. He found out about his co-stars like Sir Patrick at the same time as the rest of the world. This shows just how secretive Marvel keeps things—even from the cast members themselves.
Paul Rudd’s Hilarious Deflection
Paul Rudd compared Marvel secrets to military secrets and then said Marvel is actually MORE important. His peak Paul Rudd humor while revealing absolutely nothing about Doomsday was masterful entertainment.
Lewis Pullman’s Major Reveal
Lewis Pullman dropped a bombshell: the Thunderbolts post-credit teaser is technically part of Avengers Doomsday. This confirms that Thunderbolts is directly setting up the next Avengers film, making it essential viewing.
Conclusion
These cast members are doing their absolute best to keep Marvel secrets, but we’re getting plenty of hints and revelations. From production details to character returns, these slips have given us a clearer picture of what’s coming. Avengers Doomsday is shaping up to be the biggest MCU event yet, and we can’t wait to see all these incredible actors come together on screen.
