Alex Perez, a Marvel Studios insider, offers a deep dive into the upcoming Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) films 'Avengers: Doomsday' and 'Secret Wars' in a February 2026 Q&A. The discussion reveals intriguing details about the characters, plotlines, and potential storylines that will unfold in these highly anticipated films.
Avengers: Doomsday
- Peggy Carter's Role: Peggy will be a 'follower of Doom' rather than a 'Doom Witch,' driven by a desire to fix the multiverse, which she believes is partly Steve Rogers' fault.
- Supernatural Elements: The film delves into supernatural concepts like the Darkhold, runes, and Agatha's absorption of magic, all of which are tied to Doom's actions in 'Avengers: Doomsday.'
- Doom's Origins: There's no truth to the theory that RDJ's Doom was originally Iron Man, tortured by Kang, and believed he was Doom. Robert Downey Jr. can portray Victor Von Doom just as Chris Evans can play two different characters with the same face.
- Cosmic Entities: The only cosmic entity mentioned is The Watcher, suggesting a limited involvement of cosmic forces in the film.
- Plotlines: The film will feature a unified and cohesive plot, with different teams eventually coming together for the final showdown.
Secret Wars
- Split into Two Parts: There's a high chance that 'Secret Wars' will be split into two parts, similar to the recent trend of splitting films into multiple installments. This is due to a 'conditional start' phase, where Marvel cannot legally film until a new contract verification is achieved.
- Character Involvement: Some projects like 'VisionQuest' and 'Brand New Day' will tie into 'Secret Wars' rather than 'Doomsday.'
- Bob's Role Post-Secret Wars: Alex Perez remains tight-lipped about Bob's role after 'Secret Wars.'
Controversial Interpretation: The discussion hints at a potential controversial interpretation of 'Secret Wars,' inviting readers to share their thoughts in the comments.
The Q&A also emphasizes the importance of supporting independent websites like The Cosmic Circus through Patreon, Discord, and social media engagement. Part 2 of the Q&A will be available in a few days, offering further insights into these highly anticipated MCU films.
