The solid contains actors from nearly each period of Marvel on the large display screen, even earlier than the MCU was even a factor. That features lots of the “X-Males” stars of outdated. With a solid this large, it makes it all of the extra intriguing to look at the actors who weren’t a part of the announcement. Although Marvel revealed a listing of practically 30 names, a number of the lacking names caught out like a sore thumb.

Whereas we’re not going to enter deep-cut characters right here, nor are we going to speak a lot in regards to the TV stuff for the needs of this publish, we’re going to have a look at main actors from the MCU motion pictures who apparently aren’t going to be in “Doomsday.” Or, on the very least, the actors who’re being stored a secret in the interim.

The MCU has been happening for 17 years now, relationship again to the discharge of “Iron Man” in 2008, so there are many main characters on this universe at this level. With the multiverse turning into an element lately, virtually nothing is off the desk. (Working example, Robert Downey Jr. is returning to the MCU in “Doomsday” as Physician Doom, versus Iron Man.)

Some may level out that Scarlett Johansson’s Black Widow wasn’t named within the casting announcement both. Nonetheless, Johansson not too long ago made it crystal clear that Black Widow is staying useless after the occasions of “Endgame.” Barring a serious shock right here, that appears to be the reality.

Apart from that, numerous these names are huge ones whom we would have anticipated to see within the subsequent “Avengers” film, however there may be in all probability an excellent clarification as to why they don’t seem to be going to be a part of the proceedings. Renner’s Hawkeye was famously absent from “Infinity Battle,” solely to have a pivotal half in “Endgame.” So some stuff like that could possibly be occurring right here, as “Avengers: Secret Wars” is because of arrive in 2027, one 12 months after “Doomsday.”

The Russo Brothers are directing each “Doomsday” and “Secret Wars,” which is able to convey the Multiverse Saga to an in depth. The belief is that subsequent 12 months’s “Avengers” film will tee up one thing even larger, which in all probability means a good larger solid. That is the place the likes of Samuel L. Jackson’s Nick Fury or Mark Ruffalo’s Hulk may come into play.

There are nonetheless lingering questions, although. Benedict Cumberbatch beforehand indicated he wasn’t going to be in “Doomsday,” solely to then later say that he really was going to be within the film. So, is he being stored a secret? Or is Marvel holding him in reserve for “Secret Wars” in 2027? For now, now we have way more questions than solutions. There have been additionally stories that Chris Evans was coming again for “Doomsday,” however the actor is reportedly “fortunately retired” from the MCU. We will see about that.

Tom Holland’s Spider-Man seems like one other huge omission, however the truth that “Spider-Man 4” is popping out between these two huge “Avengers” motion pictures may clarify his absence. With out digging into each single actor individually, what’s clear is that Marvel A) would not need to make “Doomsday” too unwieldy by loading it down with too many stars, and B) needs to avoid wasting heroes for “Secret Wars.”

We’ll absolutely study extra as filming progresses within the coming months. If Marvel Studios has taught us something, it is that surprises are going to be in retailer with these huge occasion movies. So in the event that they have been prepared to disclose practically 30 solid members to the general public, simply think about what they’re not telling us. 

“Avengers: Doomsday” is about to hit theaters on Might 1, 2026.
