A new rumor suggests that Avengers: Doomsday could deliver one of the biggest reunions in Marvel Cinematic Universe history. If true, the film may bring back both new and original Avengers, creating an event that reshapes the multiverse saga. Such a crossover would not only honor the legacy of the original heroes but also spotlight the rise of Marvel’s next generation. Fans believe this combination could make Avengers: Doomsday one of the most ambitious MCU films ever.
What Is the Avengers: Doomsday Rumor?
Recently, scooper Alex Perez from The Cosmic Circus posted a cryptic message on social media. He teased that:
“Fate of the entire multiverse hangs in the balance and two of the main teams have tension with each other because the leaders are still trying to sort out the ‘mantle’ debacle. And then add the OG to the mix.”
This statement sparked speculation that the “OG” refers to the original Avengers lineup—Robert Downey Jr.’s Iron Man, Chris Evans’ Captain America, Chris Hemsworth’s Thor, Scarlett Johansson’s Black Widow, and Jeremy Renner’s Hawkeye.
While Black Widow died in Avengers: Endgame, the MCU’s multiverse rules could open the door to surprising returns. The studio has already shown a willingness to revisit characters from alternate timelines, so Johansson’s return isn’t impossible.
Which Avengers Teams Could Appear?
The New Avengers
One rumored group is the New Avengers, likely led by Sebastian Stan’s Bucky Barnes, also known as the Winter Soldier. This team may represent the next generation of Marvel heroes stepping into leadership roles.
Sam Wilson’s Avengers
Another team reportedly in the mix is Sam Wilson’s Avengers. With Anthony Mackie now wielding the Captain America shield, his squad may take on significant responsibility in the battle for the multiverse. This could also showcase Sam’s growth as a leader, building on his journey in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier.
The Original Avengers (The OG)
Perhaps the most exciting element of the rumor is the possible return of the original Avengers. Although only Robert Downey Jr. (now playing Doctor Doom) and Chris Hemsworth are confirmed for the movie, fans speculate about Chris Evans’ involvement. Johansson’s Black Widow could also reappear thanks to multiverse mechanics. Even Jeremy Renner’s Hawkeye, who has stepped back from the action, might be included in a supporting role.
Why This Reunion Matters for Avengers: Doomsday
Bringing multiple Avengers teams together would create one of the MCU’s largest reunions to date. The conflict between new and old leaders, combined with multiverse threats, promises high emotional stakes. Moreover, Marvel fans have long hoped to see legacy heroes interact with newer characters, and Avengers: Doomsday might finally make that possible.
This kind of crossover also raises exciting storytelling opportunities. Will the younger heroes clash with their predecessors over leadership and responsibility? Could the multiverse itself force alternate versions of the Avengers to appear, blurring the line between friend and foe? These questions make the film even more intriguing.
Marvel Studios has already locked in release dates for its next two Avengers films. Avengers: Doomsday is scheduled to arrive in theaters on December 18, 2026, followed by Avengers: Secret Wars on December 17, 2027. These back-to-back releases set the stage for an epic conclusion to the Multiverse Saga.
Although unconfirmed, the chance to see original and new Avengers unite in Avengers: Doomsday excites fans. If true, it could be one of the MCU’s most defining and memorable films.
