We're hearing that a certain character could have a small role in Avengers: Doomsday. This probably wouldn't be considered a major reveal, but here's your spoiler warning just in case...

By all accounts, Avengers: Secret Wars is shaping up to be a massively ambitious event that will include characters from all corners of the Multiverse. Avengers: Doomsday has been described as being slightly smaller in scale, but it sounds like the first part of Marvel Studios' Multiverse Saga finale is still going to be a jam-packed affair in its own right.

In addition to the "well-known Marvel Comics character" we've been hearing about (who might end up being played by Ana de Armas), a certain street-level vigilante may also feature.

Possible spoilers follow.

We have previously heard that Charlie Cox's Matt Murdock/Daredevil will appear in Secret Wars, but according to scooper Daniel Richtman, the Man Without Fear will also have a "small role" in Doomsday.

This could suggest that Daredevil will only show up towards the end of the movie to set up a more significant part in Secret Wars, or perhaps we'll only see Murdock drop by for a Spider-Man: No Way Home-style cameo. At any rate, we should have a better idea of what to expect following the events of Daredevil: Born Again.

Speaking of the upcoming Disney+ series, Richtman has also heard that the talk of a third season already being in the early stages of development is premature. While a second season is planned, nothing is going to be green-lit until the viewership numbers for the first batch of episodes come in.

Avengers: Doomsday will feature the return of Tony Stark/Iron Man actor Robert Downey Jr. as Doctor Doom. The movie arrives in theaters on May 1, 2026, followed by Avengers: Secret Wars on May 7, 2027. Both films will be directed by the Russo brothers, who also make their MCU return after helming Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Captain America: Civil War, Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame.

"Being able to create stories and explore characters within the Marvel Universe fulfilled a life-long dream of ours, and we discovered a powerful connection with audiences in each film that we made. We’re thrilled to collaborate once again with Kevin, Lou and the entire Marvel team to bring this epic adventure in storytelling to new and surprising places for both the fans and ourselves”, said The Russos in a statement after the SDCC panel.

give him the double D

campblood - 12/28/2024, 11:21 AM

@harryba11zack - that’s what she said

dragon316 - 12/28/2024, 11:36 AM

@harryba11zack - may look weird vision and Loki costume never comic accurate yellow trunks in movies they should make it small not big noticeable gambit costume comic accurate but look very cartoony and made channium look fat

harryba11zack - 12/28/2024, 11:43 AM

@dragon316 - It's 2 letters mate, they did it back in 2003, nothing weird about it.

Timerider - 12/28/2024, 11:33 AM

The Defenders and some of the OG X-Men show up to help the Avengers in their time of need. Throw in some Ghostrider(Nic Cage), some Blade(Wesley Snipes), Gambit(Channing Tatum) and a dying Deadpool in the arms of Thor and you pretty much have Secret Wars.

GodHercules20 - 12/28/2024, 11:37 AM

What he gonna do?

Waste of screen time

GeneralZod - 12/28/2024, 11:43 AM

Street-level vigilante ... bring Luke Cage Power Man to the big screen. That would get audiences cheering from their seats.

WakandaTech - 12/28/2024, 11:48 AM

So instead of giving him a big part in
Spider-Man 4
since daredevil is a movie star level character

You gonna put him in Doomsday as a gimmick

ModHaterSLADE - 12/28/2024, 12:17 PM

Hope we get Armas as Enchantress.

bkmeijer1 - 12/28/2024, 12:31 PM

I just wanna see him throw a baton at Doom's face. That's all I need really. Small role should suffice

TheVisionary25 - 12/28/2024, 12:40 PM

@bkmeijer1 - that could be cool.

Yeah , I honestly don’t see DD making much impact in these films if he’s in them in general since he might be out of his depth here.

bkmeijer1 - 12/28/2024, 12:45 PM

@TheVisionary25 - I don't expect to see a lot of him either. He's probably in the Secret Wars equivalent of the Portals scene, but that's it.

Do wonder which characters will be the leads though. For some reason, I do think She-Hulk works (controversial to say, I know)

TheVisionary25 - 12/28/2024, 12:57 PM

@bkmeijer1 - yeah , that’s how I see him too

I definitely think Sam & Yelena should be at the front.

Maybe Peter and Pedro’s Reed too

bkmeijer1 - 12/28/2024, 2:59 PM

@TheVisionary25 - I definitely expect Sam to play a big role. Hope Shang-Chi, Captain Marvel and Hulk are on the main team too.

As for Incursions, it could work showing that from Daredevil's (or other small characters) perspective. Kinda reminds me off the Nick Fyry post/-credit scene in Infinity War or the hospital scene in WandaVision.

TheVisionary25 - 12/28/2024, 12:40 PM

I think it would be cool to “see” the incursion from Matt’s POV as he’s swinging through NY or fighting Doom’s minions on the streets whoever they may be in this…

Otherwise given the situation which could be all hands on deck , he might even become a temporary Avenger and try to fight Doom’s minions even though he likely couldn’t do much there.

Bringing Daredevil to this fight is like Deadpool using Peter for anything. These movies will have no lasting factor, just hype that's over once you see it. I'd love for them to prove me wrong, I just think they had a huge plan that coincided with Endgame. I also think they had no clue what to do next, all the effort was put into the ending. Now they're pivoting and going the cameo route. 7 YEARS SINCE A TEAM UP MOVIE?! wtf are you doing Feige. It used to be a three year gap lol let's see what happens. I smell desperation, and it's not just the usual goons in here lol

MarvelZombie616 - 12/28/2024, 1:55 PM

@bobevanz - Thunderbolts* is a teamup movie.

comicfan100 - 12/28/2024, 1:56 PM

@bobevanz - I think you missed the part where it said "small role"

Antitrollpatrol - 12/28/2024, 3:34 PM

Was I missing something it seemed like he was going to say who ana de armas could be playing but just says that daredevil is going to show up? Is it just the writing being misleading or did I not understand what was written?

RolandD - 12/28/2024, 5:22 PM

@Antitrollpatrol - I did not read it super carefully, but that’s what I got from the article too. Also, if you’re listening, Mark, you shared the RDJ photos enough by now.

Antitrollpatrol - 12/28/2024, 9:10 PM

@RolandD - lol the RDJ photo is something I'm going to expect to be in every article till the teaser comes out.

RolandD - 12/28/2024, 9:21 PM

@Antitrollpatrol - That is Mark’s MO.😂 he finally stopped referring to Superman as formerly known as Superman Legacy. I’ll take it though. His articles are usually good.

RolandD - 12/28/2024, 9:23 PM

@Antitrollpatrol - That is Mark‘s MO.😂 He only recently stopped calling Superman, the movie formally known as Superman Legacy. I’ll take it though because his articles are usually good.

Waifuslayer2 - 12/28/2024, 5:52 PM

Ana deserves better than the MCU.

NinnesMBC - 12/28/2024, 5:58 PM

A scene of Daredevil just jumping through a portal with his usual parkour maneuvers would be sweet.
