On March 26, 2025, Marvel Studios unleashed a five-hour-plus livestream packed with jaw-dropping reveals.

Robert Downey Jr in Avengers: Doomsday

Robert Downey Jr. Steals the Show as Doctor Doom

Let’s start with the bombshell: Robert Downey Jr. is back in the MCU, but he’s ditching the Iron Man suit for Doctor Doom’s mask. First teased at San Diego Comic-Con 2024, this twist has everyone buzzing. After hanging up his Tony Stark role in Avengers: Endgame, Downey’s return is huge. He’s reuniting with directors Joe and Anthony Russo, the duo behind Infinity War and Endgame. This comeback is pure MCU magic!

MCU Favorites Are Locked In

The Marvel Avengers Doomsday cast is loaded with heroes we love. Chris Hemsworth is swinging back as Thor, Tom Hiddleston is stirring trouble as Loki, and Anthony Mackie is soaring as Captain America. Add Paul Rudd as Ant-Man, Letitia Wright as Black Panther, and Simu Liu as Shang-Chi, and you’ve got a powerhouse lineup. Oh, and Sebastian Stan is pulling double duty as the Winter Soldier, tying this epic to the Thunderbolts squad. It’s going to be wild!

Florence Pugh (Yelena Belova)

Thunderbolts Crash the Party

Speaking of Thunderbolts, they’re bringing serious heat to Doomsday. Florence Pugh returns as Yelena Belova, Wyatt Russell suits up as John Walker, and David Harbour flexes as Red Guardian. Toss in Hannah John-Kamen as Ghost and Lewis Pullman as the mysterious Bob, and this anti-hero crew is ready to shake things up. The crossover vibes? Off the charts!

Patrick Stewart X Man

X-Men Icons Step Into the MCU

This is the exciting part—legendary X-Men characters are joining the battle! Patrick Stewart is back as Professor X, and Ian McKellen (yep, Ian McKellan himself) brings Magneto to the table. James Marsden lights it up as Cyclops, while Rebecca Romijn slinks in as Mystique. Then you’ve got Alan Cumming as Nightcrawler and Kelsey Grammer as Beast—Kelsey Grammer Marvel and Alan Cumming MCU fans are living for this. Plus, Channing Tatum finally gets his Gambit shot after stealing scenes in Deadpool & Wolverine. The mashup between James Marsden’s X-Men and Channing Tatum’s Marvel is truly remarkable!

Fantastic Four Joins the Fun

The Fantastic Four squad from First Steps is jumping in too. Pedro Pascal leads as Reed Richards, Vanessa Kirby shines as Sue Storm, Joseph Quinn blazes as the Human Torch, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach rocks it as The Thing. Vanessa Kirby Marvel fans are already hyped for her MCU debut. This team’s ready to face Dr Doom and flip the multiverse upside down!

Surprise Comebacks and New Names

One curveball? Tenoch Huerta is back as Namor from Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. After some 2023 drama, he’s still in Marvel’s good books.
