Marvel Fan Sneaks Onto AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY Set and Spills Location Secrets
Over the weekend, a Marvel fan managed break onto the Avengers: Doomsday set at Pinewood Studios in the UK. According to their own account, they found a hole in the surrounding fence, slipped through, and wandered around the production site of one of the most highly-guarded blockbusters in the making.
While they didn’t exactly walk into a climactic battle scene or stumble across Robert Downey Jr. walking around as Doctor Doom, they did get a glimpse at some interesting location details, and also helped themselves to some craft services while they were at it. Priorities.
It has since been revealed that he's been hit with a formal warning from Marvel Studios, so we don't expect to see him breaking into any more movie sets anytime soon.
The biggest reveal is that there are scenes being shot on Madripoor. A set clearly pointed to the fictional island nation making a return in the MCU. For comic fans, Madripoor is most famously tied to Wolverine’s Patch persona, and for MCU viewers, it was introduced in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier along with the reveal of Sharon Carter’s mysterious new identity as the Power Broker.
Could Doomsday finally dig into that storyline? With the Russo Brothers reportedly back at the helm, it’s very much on the table.
Another detail spotted was signage for something called “The Webslingers Inn.” Whether that’s part of the actual film or just an inside joke among the crew remains unclear.
And while this mystery set explorer didn’t leak any plot details or earth-shattering reveals, their rogue adventure certainly lit a fire under fan theories, and definitely under Marvel’s security team.. Given the scope of this breach, it wouldn’t be surprising if this individual is soon dealing with more than just social media clout.
Meanwhile, Anthony Mackie, who now wears the MCU’s Captain America mantle, recently teased some massive stakes in Avengers: Doomsday:
“You know what? I was really excited, man. It’s one of those stories that really pushes the boundaries, and it — the cliffhanger at the end, you know, the last moments of the film — it really builds and sets us up for a way for the continuation of the Marvel saga, which is really exciting.”
And if that wasn't ominous enough, he added:
“You see these characters, and you see how they’re introduced and how they play in the universe moving forward, and no one is safe. Everyone is expendable.”
Avengers: Doomsday is set to hit theaters on May 1, 2026, with Avengers: Secret Wars following on May 7, 2027.
