AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY Set Photos Seemingly Confirm That Reshoots Have Started; Reveal [SPOILER] Setting

New photos and footage from the set of Avengers: Doomsday seemingly confirm that reshoots have begun early, and it seems the MCU is taking us back to a familiar time period.

In the closing moments of Avengers: Endgame, Steve Rogers travelled back in time to return the Infinity Stones and Mjolnir to their rightful place in the MCU's timeline. 

At some point on his journey, Captain America decided to remain in the past to get his happy ending with Peggy Carter. His reappearance in the present day suggested he'd lived his life at the same time his past self had been in ice and then fighting alongside The Avengers. 

However, the rules established in Loki suggest that Steve's actions created a branching timeline. That's likely to have major ramifications for the Multiverse in Avengers: Doomsday, with Doctor Doom reportedly out to make Cap pay for the Incursion that destroyed his world.

It's previously been reported that Avengers: Doomsday reshoots will begin in April, but it appears cameras are already rolling in London. No actors were spotted on set, but crew members wearing Avengers: Doomsday jackets were spotted filming scenes set in World War II London. 

We can't really even begin to speculate about who they are or what will feature in this sequence, though Steve and Peggy Carter seem a safe bet. Of course, this may be one of the alternate realities we visit while exploring the Multiverse and could just be an establishing shot.

Still, we should also point out that this could be for a completely different movie or TV show that just so happened to have a few crew members who previously worked on Avengers: Doomsday on set, wearing their jackets.


UPDATE: This may have been for Narnia: The Magician's Nephew, which is also filming in the UK capital. There's also evidence to suggest the Nicolas Cage-led World War II movie, Operation Fortitude, was being shot over the weekend.


The photos and footage below are from yesterday, so if this is for the next Avengers movie, fingers crossed we'll get our first look at the cast on set in the coming days.

Check out these possible Avengers: Doomsday set photos in the Instagram gallery below.

Avengers: Doomsday officially stars Chris Hemsworth, Anthony Mackie, Winston Duke, Tom Hiddleston, Sebastian Stan, Letitia Wright, Paul Rudd, and Robert Downey Jr. Wyatt Russell, Simu Liu, Tenoch Huerta Mejia, Florence Pugh, Danny Ramirez, David Harbour, Hannah John-Kamen, and Lewis Pullman all make their Avengers franchise debuts in the movie.

The Fantastic Four: First Steps leads Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, and Joseph Quinn join them, as do X-Men franchise stars Kelsey Grammer, Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, Alan Cumming, Rebecca Romijn, James Marsden, with Deadpool & Wolverine star Channing Tatum.

Chris Evans is also officially confirmed to reprise his role as Steve Rogers, as is India Rose Hemsworth as Love. The Hollywood trades have reported that Hayley Atwell and Ryan Reynolds will appear as Peggy Carter and Deadpool, respectively.

The Russo Brothers direct Avengers: Doomsday from a screenplay by Stephen McFeely, with whom they previously collaborated on the Avengers and Captain America franchises. Loki and Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness's Michael Waldron is also working on the script.

Avengers: Doomsday is set to be released on December 18, with Avengers: Secret Wars scheduled to arrive on December 17, 2027.

Captain America could have had his OWN movie right after Endgame with him just returning the stones.

@WEAPONXOXOXO - A special presentation would be sweet. Better than 95% of all D+ crap.

Interesting…

The Steve and Peggy after credits scene in EG was set in the 60’s right?.

Maybe I’m wrong but given that Peggy didn’t really look older , I guess not and it could have been in the 40’s so likely they are here though it’s curious why they would be in London tbh…

I could see Peggy being on a mission and Steve is back home taking care of their kid but when shit goes down , she comes back.

However this could be just a completely different project that had some crew members work on Doomsday too thus were wearing those jackets lol!!.

If it is Doomsday, it could just be some 2nd unit shooting until the cast is scheduled to return in April. The fact that it's in London or that a guy is wearing an Avengers jacket doesn't mean that's what they're shooting. Disney has moved pretty much everything to london (effectively destroying the film industry in Atlanta in the process), and they all use a lot of the same crew. So... maybe, maybe not.

@Patient2670 - pretty much.

That sucks to hear about Atlanta , I think some still shoot there but it’s not as common as it once was.

@Patient2670 - Na, NWH was a better epilogue of sorts, especially as we kind of saw how Steve's story ended (twice) with Old Steve (or variant until they decide to clue us in) and in the last shot where he was with Peggy.

I would be down for an animated one shot to explain though. Now that What If is done, that could fill the the hole.

@Patient2670 - They shot some of Avengers: Endgame battle scenes in Albuquerque, NM there’s a studio there. It’s not just Hollywood, Atlanta, or London.

@Timerider - Sure. There are production stages everywhere. But, Marvel had a huge footprint in Atlanta which they were using as their home base. Of course, they would go out for a few weeks, here or there. But those stages in atlanta (the majority of available space) was leased to marvel since they had so many projects they were doing. Now they're sitting empty. New mexico has never had enough projects coming in, that they were able to build a talent pool which could entice more projects - Tax incentives are heavily reliant on hiring locals. Initially, the Star Wars TV stuff was here in LA, but LA is one of the most expensive cities to shoot in, while London is doing some crazy incentives to bring in the work - Things that are being investigated as potentially illegal, or at least shady. Both Warners and Disney have been shooting the vast majority of their big projects at Leavsden and Pinewood in london for the past several years.

@TheVisionary25 - Very little. My contacts, vendors and crew mwmbers there (most of which relocated from here in LA during the boom)are out of work and trying to figure out if it's even worth staying in the industry. Even in LA, I'm struggling with the same issues. It's rough out there, these days.

hmmm...I wonder if this is why they decided to announce Chris Evan's return in the trailer rather than risk leaks coming out from these reshoots.

Either way i'm down.

Not Doomsday at all. It's the exact same chase sequence we have seen them shooting for Narnia over the last several months. Same vehicles, same extras, same police cars, same poiicemen on bicycles.
