Cast Of Avengers – The Kang Dynasty Or The New Doomsday 

In 2026, the Avengers will return to the big screen in Avengers: Doomsday, reuniting the first MCU superhero team for the first time since Avengers: Endgame. While concrete story details are limited so far, Shang-Chi director Destin Daniel Cretton’s Avengers 5 promises to be a crossover event of unprecedented magnitude, with potentially thousands of extremely powerful villains facing off against the biggest hero line-up ever united in the MCU timeline within one project. There is no question that blood will be spilled.

However, issues for Avengers: Doomsday occurred based on Jonathan Majors’ legal matters, as Majors was found guilty on two misdemeanor counts of harassment and assault on December 18, 2023. Shortly after, claims surfaced that the MCU had severed connections with the actor, and that Avengers: The Kang Dynasty would now be known as Avengers 5, with a new title of Avengers: Doomsday to be announced months later.

Avengers 5 – Latest News, Release Date, Trailer…

The July 2024 San Diego Comic-Con provided a wealth of information about Avengers: Doomsday, confirming various reports and revealing critical details about the imminent release. First, the Comic-Con Marvel panel revealed that Avengers 5 would be formally retitled Avengers: Doomsday, with Doctor Doom replacing Kang as the principal nemesis in this chapter of the MCU’s plot. This coincides with the announcement that Robert Downey Jr. will play Doctor Doom in the MCU, returning to the franchise after his Iron Man character perished in Avengers: Endgame.

Additionally, the Russo brothers were confirmed as the filmmakers for Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars, following claims that they were in talks to join the next two Avengers films. With the director duo having already directed Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Captain America: Civil War, Avengers: Infinity War, and Avengers: Endgame, this is a very promising development, since this movie lineup has demonstrated a definite capacity to make critically and financially successful MCU blockbusters. Given that the total box office revenue for these films exceeds $5 billion, Avengers 5 is clearly in a promising position.

The Number Of Characters in Avengers 5

Finally, a Deadline article from June 2024 revealed that the Avengers 5 ensemble might include more than 60 people, making the plot truly epic. While this may present some narrative challenges in terms of ensuring that the diverse cast of characters introduced into the film are paid off over the course of its runtime, this sizable roster would help the next Avengers film after Avengers: Endgame live up to its predecessor, and could very well be exactly what the franchise needed.

Cast Of Avengers 5 – From Kang Dynasty To Doomsday

So far, Avengers: Doomsday has a key confirmed figure in Doctor Doom, who was unveiled at the 2024 San Diego Comic-Con as a component of the future film, hence the title. Doctor Doom’s casting was also announced, with Robert Downey Jr., the legendary MCU Iron Man actor, returning to the cinematic universe in this new role. Introducing Doctor Doom appears to be an excellent lead-up to the Secret Wars tale, given he has already served as an antagonist in one of the comic renditions of this story.

The Fantastic Four will appear in Avengers: Doomsday’s cast, which makes sense considering that they will debut shortly before Avengers 5, and The Fantastic Four appears to be the film in which Doctor Doom will also make his debut. The Marvel panel also confirmed that the Thunderbolts* ensemble will appear in Avengers: Doomsday, including Florence Pugh’s Yelena Belova, David Harbour’s Red Guardian, and Sebastian Stan’s Bucky Barnes, among others.

Given the power levels, it appears like Doom will serve as the next major MCU enemy. Avengers 5 requires an Avengers team to match, and while the New Avengers line-up for Phase 6 has yet to be unveiled, we have a fair idea who will feature. The list of the most likely possibilities is rather large:

• Thor – Chris Hemsworth
• Captain America: Anthony Mackie
• Doctor Strange stars Benedict Cumberbatch.
• Spider-Man: Tom Holland
• Captain Marvel: Brie Larson
• Hulk – Mark Ruffalo.
• Ant-Man: Paul Rudd
• Wasp – Evangeline Lily.
• Black Panther’s Letitia Wright
• War Machine – Don Cheadle
• Wong — Benedict Wong
• Shang-Chi – Simu Liu
• Ms Marvel: Iman Vellani
• Monica Rambeau – Teyonah Parris
• She-Hulk – Tatiana Maslany
• Hawkeye (Hailee Steinfeld and/or Jeremy Renner)
• Cassie Lang, Kathryn Newton
