VIDEO: The MCU's YOUNG AVENGERS Assemble For The First Time...Aboard Disney Treasure Cruise Ship

The Young Avengers have finally assembled in a new video playing aboard Disney's cruise ships, with America Chavez, Cassie Lang, and Riri Williams/Ironheart enjoying some downtime following a team-up...

Much has been said about the Young Avengers assembling in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. While we're no longer expecting a movie featuring the characters to be released before the Multiverse Saga ends, we'd be shocked if some version of the team isn't in Avengers: Doomsday.

However, Disney's Cruise Line has beaten the MCU to the punch by bringing together America Chavez (Xochitl Gomez), Cassie Lang (Kathryn Newton), and Riri Williams/Ironheart (Dominique Thorne) aboard its cruise ships.

In a video that played during the "Marvel Celebration of Heroes: Groot Remix" dining experience at the Worlds of Marvel restaurant on the Disney Treasure, the trio can be seen together following a successful team-up. Chavez suggests a round of shuffleboard, though her fellow heroes don't appear overly excited by the prospect. 

This footage would have been shot in conjunction with Marvel Studios so the whole thing could be testing the waters for when these characters eventually come together on screen. 

Gomez made her MCU debut as America in 2022's Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness and is expected to be a major player in the next Avengers movies given her ability to travel between realities. Thorne first played Riri in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever that same year and will headline her own Ironheart TV series next summer. Finally, Newton took over the role of Cassie in 2023's Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania

"It's pretty crazy that not only do people love the character, but they want to see more of her," Gomez told us while discussing the Doctor Strange sequel's release. "They haven't told me what's next for my character, but I obviously can't ignore that America's powers are, you know, Multiverse and the next chapter of the MCU is called The Multiverse Saga [Laughs]."

"I'm just hoping that America Chavez has a role to play in that and hopefully, it gets to unfold over the next four years or so. Who knows!"

Are the Disney cruises canon though? Or is it the same universe as the parks? Still, think it's pretty funny the first time we're seeing them together is on a boat

@bkmeijer1 - none of the theme park or cruise stuff is canon.
bkmeijer1
bkmeijer1 - 11/21/2024, 7:50 AM
@Slotherin - figured as much. Do remember reading that the parks are their own universe, so I'm kinda assuming everything from Disney Experiences is in that same universe

@bkmeijer1 - The cruises and the parks exist in the same universe. Our universe.

@ObserverIO - meant moreso the universe where all these superheroes exist in. Or is that still our universe? I see a lot of complications with that.

@xfan320 - Just an endless cycle of the same ~20 characters being rebooted every ten years?

thedrudo - 11/21/2024, 6:50 AM
@Clintthahamster - Better than these choices I think. Can you honestly say a movie showcasing these three and a couple others would be on the same page as the OG characters?

Maybe like a Disney+ series or something but it’s just getting sad at this point.

@thedrudo - "Can you honestly say a movie showcasing these three and a couple others would be on the same page as the OG characters?"

Of course not. That's also an impossible standard to meet. Movies are never going to be able to tell the same kind of indepth, decades-long stories that the comics can accomplish. They're different media, and they tell stories differently.

"James Bond has done it for years. Sometimes successfully and sometimes not so much."

Apples and oranges, IMO. Ian Fleming wrote 14 Bond novels over 13 years. There are more than 10,000 Marvel Characters, from thousands of creators, with 80 years of stories told across tens of thousands of individual issues.

I'm think they'll reboot one day down the road, but there are SO MANY stories left to be told, and a finite number of release dates per year. I guess I'd rather see Ghostrider and more Daredevil and X-Men and Alpha Flight and Blade and any of the MANY pre-Marvel TV shows that squandered great characters like The Runaways, The Inhumans, Cloak and Dagger, etc, than reboot the same handful of characters every ten years or so.

@Clintthahamster - Middle ground between the “same characters for 20 years” and what we are getting is right in your post-

“ I'd rather see Ghostrider and more Daredevil and X-Men and Alpha Flight and Blade”

The problem is less that we don’t have Tony Stark or Steve Rodgers, it’s that they didn’t move on to the other A and B listers after that.

@Clintthahamster - Better than the retreaded characters they use here that literally no child on that ship cares about.
Clintthahamster
Clintthahamster - 11/21/2024, 7:37 AM
@mountainman - They've got Fantastic Four, Spidey 4, two more Avengers joints, and then a shitload of X-Men coming in the next few years. COVID followed by the writers strike set things back for a while, but we're finally catching up.

@GeneralZod - "Better than the retreaded characters they use here that literally no child on that ship cares about."

Even if that's true (not saying it's not, just no way to know) seems like showing an ad on a cruise ship filled with Marvel/Disney obsessives would be a pretty good idea to increase interest.

@Clintthahamster - I am well aware of the upcoming slate. This article, and the comment you referred to, was about the Young Avengers.

Are you claiming that they (or many of the other Phase 4/5 characters) have the same level of fan base as the characters you just mentioned?

Young Avengers = Fantastic Four?
Shang Chi = Daredevil?
Eternals = X-Men?
ObserverIO
ObserverIO - 11/21/2024, 8:23 AM
@Clintthahamster - So instead of recasting the OG Avengers you say they should move on to Daredevil, Fantastic Four, Ghost Rider, Spider-Man and X-Men, right? But unless you're talking about Ben Affleck, Jessica Alba, Nic Cage and Tobey Maguire and Halle Berry you do realise that these would be rebooted and recast versions of these characters, just like James Bond.

Why is it okay for some Marvel characters and not others?

@mountainman - "Are you claiming that they (or many of the other Phase 4/5 characters) have the same level of fan base as the characters you just mentioned?"

Of course I said nothing like that. Marvel didn't have the rights to Fantastic Four or X-Men until March 2019, and there have been two MASSIVE disruptions since then, shutting down film production for 2+ years, cumulatively. They're going to get to it, but making movies takes time, especially movies of this scale. The stuff that's coming out now has been in production for 3 or more years. I think you know this.
mountainman
mountainman - 11/21/2024, 8:42 AM
@Clintthahamster - I do know all this.

And none of it changes the first point I made that they could have focused on popular characters post-Endgame. They didn’t have to stick with the same Phase 1-3 characters and they didn’t have to move on to the not as popular Phase 4-5 characters.
Clintthahamster
Clintthahamster - 11/21/2024, 10:12 AM
@mountainman - Popular according to who, though? Looking at the top single-issue sales of 2023, there were only 6 titles that weren't either x-men or spider-man related (Ultimates, Avengers, Incredible Hulk, Scarlet Witch, and Daredevil.) Bottom line, they have not had access to most of the most popular characters until recently.
Clintthahamster
Clintthahamster - 11/21/2024, 10:15 AM
@ObserverIO - "Why is it okay for some Marvel characters and not others?"

They were produced by different studios, in some cases decades ago. It's not remotely the same thing.

And listen, I'm not opposed to recasting. I just like new characters, too. I like comic book movies! They're fun!

mountainman - 11/21/2024, 10:48 AM
@Clintthahamster - Odd how none of those characters you listed were the ones I was calling out as less popular. The only one of those that wouldn’t have been considered top tier of Marvel popularity 20
years ago is Scarlet Witch. And the Young Avengers, which was the original focus of this conversion, have never been at the top of the popularity charts. If they had a more planned out D+ strategy, they should have built them up and did the team up there. They still could. But a Young Avengers movie (in my best guess) would not be anywhere close to as successful as their top tier properties.

Now that could be fine. It’s ok to throw in less popular or known characters along with the more popular ones. Guardians of the Galaxy were unknowns to the GA and they became well known. Could happen with other characters or teams too. But it also could fail. We just don’t know. And producing the properties that would be more sure bets seems like the better strategy that would allow them to also take risks in between those more sure bets.

@xfan320 - Marvel screwed everything up with Endgame. Just a horribly written film which terrible repercussions.

That's right.

"producing the properties that would be more sure bets seems like the better strategy that would allow them to also take risks in between those more sure bets."

I was about to say that The Young Avengers would be exactly the kind of risk they could take between sure things like DP&W, FF, Spidey 4, Avengers 5 & 6, etc, but then I remembered that they haven't even announced a young avengers movie. It's not even on the calendar. We're talking about a 30 second video clip which is likely part of a 60-90 minute loop that plays while folks are at this restaurant. It's just not that serious.

@Slotherin - I can imagine feeling like I had like a professional setback seeing my peers land high-profile global ad campaigns while I am promoting myself on a cruise ship with a fixed number of Passengers repeatedly seeing the same ad during their trip, probably growing annoyed or mocking it. Personally, I think it's a step down in prestige that could suggest a less than flourishing career because cruise ship ads are sort of considered lower tier compared to TV, film, even digital ads.
Slotherin
Slotherin - 11/21/2024, 9:12 AM
@Baf - eh, sounds like a matter of a weak ego to get caught up in comparison. Everything is relative and these girls haven't amassed stardom yet.
If in their shoes I would just be happy to be involved and get to entertain some crowds, maybe inspire some youth
Baf
Baf - 11/21/2024, 10:28 AM
@Slotherin - I can't speak to the egos of those actors but from what I see, unless you are an A-lister, you are in constant competition with others. To not recognize that could be bad for business and kind of against human nature. The original Avengers were in a cruise ship ad too, back in 2012. However, stunt doubles were used, not the actors themselves.
GeneralZod
GeneralZod - 11/21/2024, 7:21 AM
No one on that ship (definitely not any kids) cares about three retreaded, wholly unoriginal characters that are reenacting a famous epilogue scene from a movie none of them had any involvement in. Just creative laziness.

@Slotherin - The comfort fully grown men have with having genuine, concrete animus towards anything not geared towards them is amazing. We are in the content boom and these guys CANNOT stop being offended about the existence of things they proclaim they don't care about on a monthly basis

@OmegaDaGr0dd - I've realized lately that the best way to find out what dudes care about the most is to wait for them to say "I literally couldn't care less about this . . ."
