A new report on the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday suggests that one of the stars in it will be playing multiple roles.
What star might be playing multiple roles in Avengers: Doomsday?
According to a new report from Daniel Richtman, Hayley Atwell will be playing “multiple characters” in the upcoming film. While it’s unclear exactly what this will mean, previous reports speculated that Atwell will play multiple versions of Peggy Carter in the upcoming movie.
This could mean we’ll see Atwell as the version of Carter who is with Steve Rogers back in time, as well as a potential alternate universe version who is a superhero in her own right, like the one introduced in the world of Marvel’s What If…? and then shown again in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Atwell herself has also kept tight-lipped about her status in Doomsday, so everything remains up in the air as of now.
So far, several major stars from the MCU have been confirmed to appear in the movie, including Chris Hemsworth’s Thor, Pedro Pascal’s Reed Richards, Vanessa Kirby’s Invisible Woman/Sue Storm, Anthony Mackie’s Captain America, Sebastian Stan’s Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier, Letitia Wright’s Shuri/Black Panther, and Paul Rudd’s Ant-Man.
More names for the upcoming movie include Wyatt Russell’s U.S. Agent/John Walker, Tenoch Huerta’s Namor, Ebon Moss-Bachrach’s The Thing/Ben Grimm, Simu Liu’s Shang-Chi, Florence Pugh’s Yelena Belova, Kelsey Grammer’s Dr. Hank McCoy/Beast, Lewis Pullman’s Bob/Sentry, Danny Ramirez’s Joaquin Torres/Falcon, Joseph Quinn’s Johnny Storm/Human Torch, David Harbour’s Alexei Shostakov/Red Guardian, Winston Duke‘s M’Baku, Hannah John-Kamen‘s Ava Starr/Ghost, and Tom Hiddleston‘s Loki.
Several X-Men characters are also coming back for the upcoming movie, including Patrick Stewart‘s Charles Xavier, Ian McKellen‘s Magneto, Alan Cumming‘s Nightcrawler, Rebecca Romijn‘s Mystique, James Marsden‘s Cyclops, and Channing Tatum‘s Gambit.
Avengers: Doomsday is set to release on December 18, 2026.
