DOCTOR STRANGE Franchise Star Confirms They Will Return In AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY (And It Could Be A Game-Changer)

Many noteworthy names are missing from the Avengers: Doomsday cast, but it appears we can now add a Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness star to the list after they teased their "powerful" return.

As work continues on Avengers: Doomsday in the UK, another actor has seemingly been confirmed as part of the already-impressive ensemble. ET Online recently caught up with Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness star Xochitl Gomez, and quizzed her about starring in the next Avengers movie (she wasn't part of that splashy cast reveal).

Gomez didn't deny being involved with the project, and instead talked about what she's excited to bring to the table as America Chavez when she crosses paths with more of Earth 616's Mightiest Heroes. 

"I mean, I'm excited to see her future," she started. "I think most importantly...what do you guys want to see? What are you hoping for America's future? I would love to see that. Hopefully, we'll cook up something with what y'all put out there. Manifest it!"

Asked to describe what America brings to the table in Avengers: Doomsday with three words, Gomez replied, "Bravery. Courage. And let's say, powerful."

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness established that America can travel through the Multiverse, essentially punching her way into new worlds (a power the Scarlet Witch hoped to use to track down Variants of her children, Billy and Tommy). We last saw the teenager training at Kamar-Taj, so she may have mastered those powers by now.

America is likely to play a key role in Avengers: Doomsday, and her presence in the movie will be a game-changer for Sam Wilson and Yelena Belova's respective teams as they look to stop whatever Doctor Doom is up to.

How the Fantastic Four travel from Earth 828 to Earth 616 is still a mystery to us, though we still don't know whether they were on that ship. We'd also bet on America joining whatever form the MCU's Young Avengers takes. 

Finally, Gomez was asked who she's most looking forward to sharing the screen with in Avengers: Doomsday and replied, "Oh wow, well, I hope...not to say anything, this is just vibes...I would love to work with Elizabeth Olsen again. That was my favourite experience ever."

Olsen is rumoured to return in Avengers: Doomsday, while Benedict Cumberbatch appeared confused about whether he's in the movie. Benedict Wong's status also isn't clear, and neither is Charlize Theron's after she made her MCU debut as Clea in the Doctor Strange sequel's post-credits scene. 

You can hear more from Gomez on Avengers: Doomsday by following the link below. 

Avengers: Doomsday 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 the 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, and Deadpool & Wolverine star Channing Tatum.

The Russo Brothers direct the movie from a script by Stephen McFeely, with whom they previously collaborated on the Captain America and Avengers franchises.

Avengers: Doomsday is set to be released on December 18, 2026, with Avengers: Secret Wars scheduled to arrive on December 17, 2027.

Well makes sense.
I'm not a fan of how they turned Doomsday into this massive event, since they could just go for a Age of Utron vibe instead of "going bigger and bigger"

Will this movie beat Ne Zha 2 numbers? I honestly think the only way for it to do this is if General Majors returns!🫡

@Nemesis17then - Will this movie or Zhe Nan 2 beat Eurovision as the non-sport event with more audience in the world?

THAT'S the real question.

@Nemesis17then

In no world is Jonathan Majors a bigger draw than Robert Downey Jr.

@Nemesis17then - oh god the Ne Zha mega fan is back bringing that movie up for no reason.

@Nemesis17then - I don't even know what Ne Zha 2 is, but why does that even matter?

@Laridian - it's a chinese animated film that did absolutely BONKERS numbers, mainly in China. It's made 2.2 billion dollars.
SATW42
SATW42 - 8/13/2025, 9:38 AM
@Laridian - you haven't heard of it because it did about 20,000 in the U.S. Not a typo. the rest of that 2.2 billion is worldwide.

@regularmovieguy - thats why the multiverse exists!

@SATW42 - That still ignores my question. Why does that matter?
SATW42
SATW42 - 8/13/2025, 11:42 AM
@Laridian - it doesn't at all, other than asking the question of if it will be one of the biggest box offices of all time, and that's a current example

Not sure why anyone should care about this
Apophis71
Apophis71 - 8/13/2025, 7:46 AM
@Nonameforme - Shouldn't matter if they don't, she will be in it for a couple mins max to open a portal and that's it, like her or love her and everything inbetween she will be as much a part of this film as a door handle is to enter a building in a film.

@Apophis71 - Exactly.

@Nonameforme - She will be in this for the exact same reason modern Marvel created the character. Three letters describe why she’s in this…

SATW42 - 8/13/2025, 9:39 AM
@Bucky74 - YAI?
Bucky74
Bucky74 - 8/13/2025, 9:48 AM
@SATW42 - Not the letters I was thinking about. I personally found her to be a grating character in Dr. Strange. Marvel is committed to the message though so that always comes first
SATW42
SATW42 - 8/13/2025, 10:32 AM
@Bucky74 - I was debating letting you know but It stands for "You're an Asshole"
SATW42
SATW42 - 8/13/2025, 10:33 AM
it's actually "You're an idiot" but in the moment, I felt like changing it up
Bucky74
Bucky74 - 8/13/2025, 10:44 AM
@SATW42 - Those who speak the truth often are

That’s not a confirmation , my guy lol…

Anyway , America was alright in MOM but I wouldn’t mind seeing her again and how she’s grown studying in Kamar Taj.

Honestly , I hope she joins the Champions in the future since I think she would fit in well with the rest (I could also see her in that Strange Academy show rumored to be in development)!!.

@TheVisionary25 - I really doubt we'll see Strange Academy happen. Instead I think should just merge it with Champions into Avengers Academy. Think America could play off Riri in an interesting way
TheVisionary25
TheVisionary25 - 8/13/2025, 9:04 AM
@bkmeijer1 - maybe not since Winderbaum has said they are developing more then they would likely end up making like every other television studio does

bkmeijer1 - 8/13/2025, 9:53 AM
@TheVisionary25 - so much is said I can't keep track. Either way, I'm always up for more daredevil

Didn’t one of the leaks say she appears in one scene to open a portal? I realise it’s still being written though.
