Speculation around Avengers Doomsday continues to grow, especially after Halle Berry addressed her potential return as Storm. While promoting Crime 101, she responded directly to questions about appearing in the upcoming Marvel film.
Berry made her stance clear. She stated, “Storm is not in the Avengers movie.” Moreover, she reinforced her answer by adding, “I promise you, we all think I’m being coy, and I’m being silly, but I’m not. I’m not there, OK.”I’m not there, OK.”
Fans Remain Skeptical Despite Clear Denial
However, despite her firm denial, fans are not entirely convinced. Marvel has already confirmed a lineup for Avengers: Doomsday that reportedly includes several X-Men characters. As a result, many viewers believe there could still be surprises hidden from the public.
In fact, Marvel Studios has a long history of keeping major cameos and character returns under wraps. Therefore, even clear statements from actors do not always settle speculation. Instead, they often fuel even more discussion among fans.
Notably, fans recall how Andrew Garfield denied his involvement in Spider-Man: No Way Home before ultimately appearing. Because of that, some fans think Halle Berry could be following a similar path.
Additionally, the confirmed inclusion of classic X-Men actors has only strengthened these theories. If multiple legacy characters are returning, fans argue that leaving out Storm would feel like a major omission. Consequently, this has led to growing theories that her appearance might be intentionally being kept secret.
At the same time, others believe Marvel could be saving Storm for a bigger reveal in a future project. For instance, some speculate she may appear in a later crossover event or take on a more central role in another film.
Ultimately, until Marvel releases official footage or casting confirmations, uncertainty will remain. For now, Berry’s comments may be clear — but fan theories surrounding Avengers Doomsday continue to evolve.
Mixed Reactions Across Social Media
Online reactions remain divided. On one hand, some fans accept Berry’s statement at face value. For instance, one fan suggested Storm might instead appear in a future Black Panther sequel.
On the other hand, many remain doubtful. Some users even compared her response to Garfield’s past denials. Meanwhile, others believe Marvel could be saving Storm for a bigger role later.
Avengers Doomsday Cast Raises Expectations
At the same time, excitement continues to build around Avengers Doomsday. The film is expected to unite major heroes from both the Avengers and X-Men worlds.
Reported cast members include James Marsden, Ian McKellen, Patrick Stewart, and Kelsey Grammer. Therefore, expectations remain high for a large-scale crossover event.
Will Storm Appear in Avengers Doomsday?
For now, Berry continues to deny any involvement. Nevertheless, Marvel fans know that surprises are always possible. Until official confirmation arrives, speculation will likely continue.
Avengers Doomsday is currently scheduled to hit theaters on December 18, 2026.
