# Avengers: Doomsday Leak Hints at Major Role for Beloved Hero
The Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) has delivered quite the journey for its fans, particularly as reactions to Phases 4 and 5 have been mixed. Nevertheless, recent updates indicate that Marvel is preparing to conclude the **Multiverse Saga** on an exhilarating note, with the forthcoming **Avengers: Doomsday** and **Avengers: Secret Wars** poised to be pivotal entries in this monumental conclusion.
## Transition from Kang Dynasty to Doomsday
A notable alteration in the MCU’s forthcoming agenda is the renaming of **Avengers: Kang Dynasty** to **Avengers: Doomsday**. This transformation suggests a substantial shift in the overarching narrative, with **Doctor Doom** (allegedly portrayed by Robert Downey Jr.) taking center stage as the main villain. This development has sparked enthusiasm among fans, as Doctor Doom is among Marvel’s most legendary antagonists, and his presence could heighten the stakes reminiscent of **Thanos** during **Infinity War** and **Endgame**.
Furthermore, the return of the **Russo brothers** to helm these Avengers movies, along with **Stephen McFeely** writing, adds to the optimism. The Russo brothers were at the helm of some of the MCU’s most cherished films, such as **Captain America: The Winter Soldier**, **Infinity War**, and **Endgame**. Their participation in **Doomsday** and **Secret Wars** has elevated hopes that these films will recapture the essence of earlier phases in the MCU.
## A Fan-Favorite Hero’s Comeback Journey
One of the most captivating speculations about **Avengers: Doomsday** involves the possible return of **Wanda Maximoff**, known as the **Scarlet Witch** (portrayed by Elizabeth Olsen). A well-known insider, **MyTimeToShineHello**, claims that Wanda will play a crucial role in the film, potentially encompassing the redemption arc that fans have been yearning for.
Wanda’s path in the MCU has been anything but smooth. Post-**WandaVision**, many believed that her character had achieved redemption. However, her later actions in **Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness** left some fans divided. In that installment, Wanda, influenced by the **Darkhold**, turned into a powerful foe, causing chaos throughout the multiverse in her endeavor to reunite with her children.
While her situation at the concluding moments of **Doctor Strange 2** remains unclear, a large segment of the audience believes that Wanda’s narrative is far from complete. Should the rumors hold true, **Avengers: Doomsday** might be the ideal platform for Wanda to seek forgiveness for her past and rejoin the Avengers in their battle against Doctor Doom.
## The Avengers’ Fresh Roster
With the original team of Avengers largely scattered or gone, **Avengers: Doomsday** is anticipated to unveil a new roster of heroes. **Sam Wilson** (Anthony Mackie) is expected to take on the role of **Captain America** in the new **Captain America: Brave New World**, and he is anticipated to play a vital role in gathering the new Avengers team.
Additionally, there are indications that **Tom Holland’s Spider-Man** will also have a significant presence in **Doomsday**, as production on **Spider-Man 4** may coincide with the Avengers film. This would signify another noteworthy crossover for the wall-crawler, who has become a fan-favorite character in the MCU.
## The Stakes Are Intensified
Much like **Infinity War**, **Avengers: Doomsday** is anticipated to witness the Avengers facing a heartbreaking defeat at the hands of Doctor Doom. This setback will likely pave the way for **Secret Wars**, where the Avengers will join forces with heroes from across the multiverse to overcome Doom and save the multiverse from impending doom.
The multiverse theme, which has been delved into in films like **Spider-Man: No Way Home** and **Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness**, will presumably play a significant role in **Secret Wars**. Fans can expect appearances from characters hailing from alternate realities, including potential cameos from **Earth-838**, where Wanda decisively took down the **Illuminati**.
## Wanda’s Redemption: Implications for the MCU
Should Wanda return in **Avengers: Doomsday**, her redemption arc could unfold as one of the most poignant narratives in the film. Many fans felt her choices in **Doctor Strange 2** were a logical outcome of her sorrow and trauma, yet they also believe she merits a second chance at redemption.
Wanda’s immense abilities render her one of the most formidable entities in the MCU, and her rejoining the Avengers could potentially shift the odds in their favor during the confrontation with Doctor Doom.
