POSTER FOR AVENGERS DOOMSDAYImage via Marvel Studios
This last weekend was an exciting one for Marvel fans, when Marvel Studios took the stage at Hall H late Saturday Night to announce some exciting updates about the future of the franchise. Arguably the most exciting announcement of the evening came when Marvel turned out the lights, only to turn them back on and confirm that Ryan Gosling had been cast as the next Ghost Rider in a Shawn Levy-directed film coming to theaters in 2028. Marvel also brought out Ryan Coogler to promote the next Black Panther movie, which is coming to theaters Christmas 2028, around one year after the premiere of Avengers: Secret Wars. Coogler also announced that David Jonsson, famed for his roles in Alien: Romulus and The Long Walk, will portray the son of T’Challa, the next Black Panther.
Marvel also brought out Anthony and Joe Russo to promote the next Avengers movie, Avengers: Doomsday, which is coming to theaters later this year on December 18. Not only was new footage from Doomsday released, but nearly the entire cast of the film (minus a few) were brought out on stage to talk about the movie, which is expected to be one of the biggest blockbusters of the year. In partnership with Marvel Studios, Hasbro has officially unveiled a stacked lineup of figures inspired by the many heroes and villains in Avengers: Doomsday, with various members of the X-Men, Fantastic Four, and Avengers all getting new figures, along with the featured villain, Doctor Doom (played by Robert Downey Jr). The first-look images of the many new figures can be found below.

Your Hero Has Been Identified Your MCU Hero Is…
Based on your answers, the Marvel hero who matches your spirit, values, and instincts has been revealed.
Queens, New York
🕷️ Spider-Man
You carry the weight of the world on shoulders that are younger than they should have to be — funny, loyal, and endlessly self-sacrificing.
You do the right thing not because it’s easy, but because no one else will.
You understand that responsibility isn’t a burden you choose — it’s one that finds you.
Whether it’s a neighbourhood mugging or a multiverse crisis, you show up.
Peter Parker’s lesson — that great power demands great responsibility — isn’t a slogan to you. It’s the code you live by, even when it costs you everything.
Hell’s Kitchen, New York
😈 Daredevil
You fight in the shadows between law and chaos, guided by a fierce moral compass that refuses to let the guilty walk free.
You use every tool available — your mind, your body, your faith — to protect those the system overlooks.
You’ve looked into the darkness and chosen not to become it, though the line has never been easy.
Matt Murdock’s duality — champion in the courtroom, devil in the alley — mirrors your own.
Relentless, conflicted, and unwilling to stop. That is exactly you.
Stark Industries, Malibu
🤖 Iron Man
Brilliant, driven, and occasionally insufferable — but always the person who solves the unsolvable problem.
You lead with your mind and back it up with resources, innovation, and a stubbornness that borders on heroic.
You started out looking out for yourself, but somewhere along the way the world became your responsibility.
Tony Stark’s arc — from ego to sacrifice — is your arc too.
You build, you plan, and when the moment comes, you’re willing to give everything. Because in the end, you’re Iron Man.
New York City
💀 The Punisher
You’ve been through fire that would break most people — and it did change you, completely. What’s left is unyielding, relentless, and operating by a code forged in grief.
You don’t ask for forgiveness, and you don’t expect gratitude.
You see a corrupt, broken world and you’ve decided to do something about it, consequences be damned.
Frank Castle’s war is born from love twisted by loss — and so is yours.
Uncompromising and unflinching — the world may not agree with your methods, but your conviction is absolute.
Asgard · Protector of the Nine Realms
⚡ Thor
Powerful, proud, and on a lifelong journey to become worthy of the legend you carry.
You lead with strength but have learned — sometimes painfully — that true greatness comes from humility and growth.
You’re larger than life, yet more vulnerable than you let on.
Thor’s story is one of transformation: from arrogant prince to worthy king, from isolated warrior to beloved protector.
You bring the storm when it’s needed — and the warmth when it matters just as much.
Brooklyn, New York · The Avengers
🛡️ Captain America
You believe in something bigger than yourself — and you fight for it even when the world has moved on and nobody else will.
You don’t bully the small guy, and you never stop when it gets hard.
Steve Rogers didn’t become a hero when he got the serum — he was always one. So were you.
Your strength isn’t in your fists; it’s in your refusal to compromise what’s right, no matter the cost.
In a world full of people taking the easy road, you’re the one who picks up the shield and stands up — every single time.
Is Deadpool in ‘Avengers: Doomsday’?
Ryan Reynolds also showed up in costume this weekend at San Diego Comic-Con as Deadpool, even grabbing a mic and asking if there was any additional photography or room for any more stars. Doctor Doom actor Robert Downey Jr shut this down, but many fans are still convinced that he’s going to have a role in the film, especially after the colossal success of Deadpool & Wolverine. With both Avengers: Doomsday and Secret Wars confirmed to be the final chapter in the Multiverse Saga, it’s a safe bet that there will be plenty of heroes who have not yet been announced. Even so, the lineup as it stands is as stacked as it’s ever been for a superhero movie.
Check out the new Avengers: Doomsday figures and stay tuned to Collider for more updates and coverage of the movie.
