New Rumor Teases Incredible Opening Scene in AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY + Doctor Doom Details
Avengers: Doomsday has been shrouded in mystery since its announcement. We know Iron Man actor Robert Downey Jr. is returning to the MCU to play Doctor Doom, and we have seen the large (yet still incomplete) cast list, but aside from the few cryptic teasers and the quick post-credits scene in The Fantastic Four, we don’t know exactly how this film will unfold.
While we wait for the first full trailer to drop during the Super Bowl on February 8th, we have a fun new rumor to get us pumped and ready for the action. Industry insider @MyTimeToShineH has revealed that the movie will open with Tobey Maguire's Spider-Man battling the X-Men, "and particularly Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine."
This somewhat corroborates claims we've heard about an Incursion destroying Sam Raimi's Spider-Man Universe, and it gives Maguire's Peter Parker a lot to fight for in this movie and Avengers: Secret Wars as he looks to bring back his loved ones.
This is sure to only increase speculation about Sadie Sink playing Peter #2's stranded daughter in Spider-Man: Brand New Day (Jean Grey still feels like a major misdirect).
The scooper has also stated, "Avengers: Doomsday is not only the most epic Avengers movie, but it might be the most epic movie OF ALL TIME. The opening scene alone tops any previous Avengers movie, and the final battle is just INSANE."
That is a pretty exciting reveal! Another rumor concerning Doctor Doom claims that Robert Downey Jr.'s Victor Von Doom will wear his mask for most of Avengers: Doomsday and that he has an accent.
This doesn’t seem like big news, but with so many crazy theories about plans for the MCU's Doom—including him being a Tony Stark Variant—this seems to add to a clearer picture of the villain.
These are all rumors, so you know the drill. Stay tuned for updates.
