What Avengers: Doomsday's Filming Window Means For The MCU Movie
Marvel Studios Plans To Avoid Delays
The Multiverse Saga has suffered more criticism than the Infinity Saga. One of the main reasons for that is that the MCU has lacked a clear direction since Avengers: Endgame, as many new characters were introduced, only to go missing for years, as MCU fan favorites also barely appeared or did not interact among themselves. Marvel has also had to deal with a lot of movies and TV shows being delayed due to both the COVID-19 pandemic and the 2023 Hollywood strikes.
10 MCU Heroes Who Could Take Down Robert Downey Jr.'s Doctor Doom
RDJ's Doctor Doom will be the villain of the next two Avengers movies, and only a select group of heroes could defeat the MCU's new main threat.
The confirmation that Avengers: Doomsday will start filming in Spring 2025 is a sign that Marvel wants to avoid delaying the return of Earth's Mightiest Heroes. Avengers: Doomsday is set to be released on May 1, 2026. Normally, superhero films start filming a year before their release date, which is the case for the next Avengers film. So, barring any unforeseen circumstances, the project's planned start date means the film should meet its release date. With an early 2025 filming start, story details and casting for Avengers: Doomsday could also start coming before the year is over.
Our Take On Avengers: Doomsday's Filming Window
The Multiverse Saga's Biggest Films Are Coming Soon
Save for Spider-Man: No Way Home, no Multiverse Saga release has felt as epic as the next two Avengers movies are shaping up to be. That comparison is the reason why I'm excited to finally see the start of production on two of the MCU's most anticipated movies. With its confirmed release window, Avengers: Doomsday will start filming around the start of the production on Tom Holland's Spider-Man 4. Based on that, I'm curious to see how big of a role Spider-Man will play in Avengers: Doomsday, especially since Robert Downey Jr.'s Doctor Doom is the film's main villain.
