Doom’s MCU collection: More heroes than just Banner
The multiverse of the Marvel Cinematic Universe is heating up, and the kidnapping plot is in full swing. Following the revelations from Avengers: Endgame Encore, the narrative stakes have escalated dramatically. The Russo brothers have confirmed that Doctor Doom is not just interested in the Hulk; he is actively collecting Marvel heroes in preparation for what is to come.
This shift in villainous focus has ignited a flurry of fan theories, leading many to wonder who else might be on Doom’s increasingly dark roster. One of the most tantalizing possibilities revolves around the web-slinger. Some fans are now excitedly speculating that Doctor Doom may have already made off with Tom Holland’s Spider-Man, linking the kidnapping directly to the mystical chaos hinted at in Spider-Man: Brand New Day.
The idea that Doom orchestrated the disappearance of Spider-Man ties into the mysterious visual glitches seen at the end of previous films. If the sequence of events mirrors a nefarious plan, the scene where the screen glitches and shows Spider-Man departing Earth might not just be a visual effect, but evidence of a villainous act. It suggests that the events of Avengers: Doomsday may involve a much broader scope of heroes being taken captive.
As the countdown to Avengers: Doomsday continues, the uncertainty about the full cast remains a major point of discussion. While Mark Ruffalo, as Bruce Banner, is certainly involved in the conflict surrounding Doom, and Tom Holland’s Spider-Man’s fate is hanging in the balance, the Russo brothers have been careful not to confirm every actor’s presence in the upcoming saga.
The speculation doesn’t stop there. Fans are also scrutinizing the fate of Steve Rogers, or Captain America. The shadowy events hinted at in the Avengers: Doomsday trailer have led to intense curiosity about whether Rogers’ position has been altered. Many are theorizing that the villainous Hydro Cap might be the new, unsettling figure steering the team into these secret wars.
With the film hitting cinemas on December 18th, and in the UK on December 16th, the anticipation is palpable. The mystery of who Doom has taken, and what the ultimate fate of these heroes will be, promises to be the most thrilling chapter yet in the MCU timeline.
