Avengers: Secret Wars – are evil Avengers assembling? Latest rumors and speculations!

Spread MCU News

Rumors surrounding “Avengers: Secret Wars” have been swirling ever since the project was announced, and recent developments have only intensified the speculation. The initial announcement that Robert Downey Jr. would return as Doctor Doom sparked immediate interest, with many fans theorizing that this version of the villain could actually be a Tony Stark variant from another universe. This theory gained traction when reports surfaced that Chris Evans and Scarlett Johansson might reprise their roles as Steve Rogers and Natasha Romanoff, respectively. These rumors hinted at the possibility of a team of “evil Avengers” assembling to challenge the new roster of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes.

Paul from the Heavy Spoilers Show has added fuel to the fire with a new video detailing what he’s heard about “Secret Wars.” According to him, the plan is to have “mirror characters” such as Sam Wilson (Captain America), Yelena Belova (Black Widow), Kate Bishop (Hawkeye), and Peter Parker (Spider-Man) come face-to-face with their predecessors or mentors. He specifically mentions an “emotional reunion” between Yelena and Natasha, but warns that the New Avengers will initially be unaware that the Multiversal variants they encounter are actually “a twisted version” of the original Avengers. This setup promises a dark turn in the narrative, as the heroes will eventually have to confront these evil versions of themselves.

If these rumors are accurate, it would suggest that Robert Downey Jr. is indeed playing a Tony Stark variant and not the traditional Victor Von Doom. This twist aligns with previous reports and adds a layer of complexity to the storyline. The idea of a team of evil Avengers led by Doom, who hails from another Earth, sets the stage for an epic confrontation. The prospect of the original Avengers cast reassembling as an evil take on the team is both thrilling and unsettling, promising a dramatic and emotionally charged showdown. With “Avengers: Doomsday” set to hit theaters on May 1, 2026, and “Avengers: Secret Wars” following on May 7, 2027, fans have plenty of time to speculate and anticipate what could be one of the most ambitious and daring storylines in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
